1. A method of testing an alloy formed of a basis metal and a plurality of alloying elements by comparison with a given test piece, said method comprising the steps of:

  • generating from said alloy a diffraction spectrum having a basis line corresponding to said basis metal and alloy lines corresponding to each of said alloying elements;

    forming a plurality of electrical signals each corresponding to a respective one of said lines and each having a signal level corresponding to the intensity of the respective line;

    integrating each of said signals;

    simultaneously comparing each of the integrated alloy signals with an adjustable portion of the integrated basis signal and generating a plurality of difference signals; and

    simultaneously evaluating all of said difference signals.
