Recent works in the area of integral experiments for fusion reactors are reviewed categorizing them into three classes. An emphasis is put on the experiments for neutron multiplying materials, Beryllium and Lead. Introduction of activities is made on the examination of the tentative version for JENDL-3 and new design-oriented experiments. A comment is given on the accuracies in experiment and analysis.

KEYWORDS: fusion reactor, integral experiment, tritium breeding, data validation
