Abstract
We present a brief overview of precision tests of bound state QED and mainl y pay our attention to laser spectroscopy as an appropriate tool for these tests. We particularly consider different precision tests of bound state QE D theory based on the laser spectroscopy of optical transitions in hydrogen , muonium and positronium and related experiments.
