A test apparatus for testing a separation force between a housing (92) and a subsidiary element (94) of a portable electronic device (100). The housing defines a plurality of through holes. The subsidiary element is attached to the housing, and covers the through holes. The test apparatus includes: a positioning apparatus (50), a push mechanism (60) and a test machine (70). The positioning apparatus positions the housing with the subsidiary element therein. The push mechanism includes a support board (62) and a plurality of rods (64). The rods are mounted in the support board. The rods pass through the through holes and resisting the subsidiary element. The test machine provides a driven force to press the support board to separate the subsidiary element from the housing.
