The High Luminosity upgrade of the Large Hadron Collider (HL-LHC), necessitates that the ATLAS experiment replace their current Inner Detector (ID) system. The new Inner Tracker (ITk) will be an all silicon detector, utilising both pixel and strip sensors, with the aim of performing as well, or better than the current system - but in a much more challenging environment. The ITk Strip detector will consist of 17888 modules, ∼ 700 of which will be produced in the Scandinavian ITk Cluster - a collaboration of Copenhagen, Lund, Oslo and Uppsala university and our industrial partner NOTE. This work encompasses the journey from individual components through industrial scale module assembly and on to performance evaluation studies at the DESY II testbeam facility. Optimisation studies were performed of the correlated multi-variable calibration necessary for a glue robot to precisely and reliably dispense the two component epoxy used in the bonding of front-end electronics to the silicon sensor. Procedures and tools were developed for integrating this process into an industrial workflow, and to account for future fundamental changes, such as a switch in the epoxy utilised. To demonstrate sufficient tracking performance of ITk strip modules, even at end-of-life, testbeam campaigns of pre-irradiated modules are conducted. These campaign serve as vi-tal feasibility studies for the ITk as a whole. Reconstruction of end-cap type modules have been historically tricky, due to their complex geometry. This work presents the full integration of semi-automated end-cap type module reconstruction in the Corryvreckan testbeam analysis framework. This represent a major improvement in turnover time from raw data to final result, making the previously impossible concept of live reconstruction during testbeam campaigns within reach.
