What you are seeing is the testing done to the controller during the production process. After the board is populated and the wires attached it goes to "first test". We run the motor in reverse with no load and then forward on a 50 amp load for at least 5 seconds.
After the case and labels are attached and the ESC is potted (waterproofed) it goes in for "second test". We apply 20 then 30 volts and then run the same power test as before.
The last test is the low voltage cut-off test. You can see in the 3rd session where the voltage slowly steps down and then cuts off.
This is done to every single ESC that we manufacture.
