One of the most important objectives of the CLIC (Compact Linear Collider) study is to demonstrate the design accelerating gradient, which in the current parameter set targets 150MV/m, under practical operating conditions. A testing program has been put into place to achieve this objective. Recent advances in understanding and quantifying the effects which both limit the ultimate accelerating gradient and fix the practical operating gradient are presented.
