Certification of functionability

My comment:

"Fontionement" is more closely linked with certainty that the machine or device will perform, will function.

Dependability

My comment:

Google "sereté de fonctionnement" with "dependability" and you'll get lots of examples.
Including http://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/S%C3%BBret%C3%A9_de_fonctionnement where the English translation is given

sureté and securité de fonctionnement are similar but.... surete is sure to operate (will work) and securite is safe to operate... but sometimes interchanged
