The observational evidence for the acceleration of the universe demonstrates that canonical theories of gravitation and particle physics are incomplete, if not incorrect. The next generation of astronomical facilities must both be able to carry out precision consistency tests of the standard cosmological model and search for evidence of new physics beyond it. I describe some of these tests, and discuss prospects for facilities in which the CAUP Dark Side team is involved, specifically ESPRESSO, Euclid and CODEX.
