The new generation of manufacturing methods that extends over subtractive type is introduced by additive manufacturing. The benefit of additive manufacturing is that it directly uses 3$D$ CAD models to create three-dimensional objects by adding more layers of material and joining them together. It is commonly utilized in the motor sector, aerospace industry, biomedical applications, prototyping, fashion such as creation of custom-made jewellery, accessories, and even clothing and many more. Additive manufacturing technology is extensively employed because of its numerous benefits, which include multimaterial goods, improved product ergonomics, on-demand manufacturing, short production runs, and so on. Various fabricating methods, which include rapid prototyping, stereolithography, electron-beam melting, fused-deposition modelling, 3$D$ printing (3$D$P), selective laser sintering, etc. Understanding the complex relationships between fundamental process parameters, flaws, and the finished product of the AM process depends heavily on mechanical testing. Because of the growing use of additive manufacturing in a variety of industries, it is critical to evaluate the mechanical performance of the components created.
