Cavity production for the European XFEL was recently started with first Nb sheets arriving. From this stage to the accelerating module being ready for the linac installation, many critical RF measurements are necessary. During the mechanical cavity fabrication the cavity half-cells, dumb-bells and end-groups are measured and sorted. The cavity spectrum and field profiles are measured and tuned. The HOM (Higher Oder Modes) couplers filter tuning, vertical cavity RF tests, cavity checks during the string assembly and final cavity performance measurements in the module as well as the fundamental mode and HOM RF spectra measurements complete the sequence. We present the procedures of the RF measurements and discuss the first results for the XFEL prototype modules with special attention for the cavity tuning.
