Abstract: A method of evaluating an all-solid-state battery includes preparing the all-solid-state battery. A charge level of the all-solid-state battery is adjusted to produce a first potential difference between a positive electrode and a negative electrode. The positive electrode or the negative electrode is selected as a reference electrode. After the charge level is adjusted, an operation to insert a conductive rod-shaped member into a stack portion along a direction of stack of the positive electrode and the negative electrode is performed while a second potential difference between the reference electrode and the rod-shaped member is measured. The rod-shaped member is stopped. The all-solid-state battery is evaluated based on a state of the all-solid-state battery after the rod-shaped member is stopped.
