abstract = {{The ESS-Bilbao RFQ is an assembly of four segments, each one about 800 mm in length. The first segment has been manufactured before the others, so it could be thoroughly tested in order to validate the chosen technological approach for the RFQ, as it uses polymeric vacuum gaskets and bolts instead of brazing. In this paper we report on the tests run with the segment and their results. Vacuum tests, metrology measurements, low power RF tests as well as extensive tuning tests measuring the cavity resonant quadrupolar frequency as a function of cooling water temperature have been done. Experimental results are compared to the expected values obtained from numerical simulations. We describe the experimental set-ups for the measurements and the simulations. Results are analyzed with the aim of validating the design, and also to provide predictions for tuning and operation of the whole RFQ. As a consequence of the positive results of the tests reported here, the remaining segments have already been tendered.}},
