Basically Colette you chuck your bike on a Dyno and see how much power and torque it pumps out.

I'm in mate

Be good to see how the 10's compare. I'm sure Dave's got more grunt then mine, cause he's always out in front, or is that just because ......damn!! :)

look at this or this for how they do bikes and here for general dyno runs on cars, some of them are wanky, others quite cool to look at.
oops didnt realise this was a HUGE picture here's a dyno place

But yeah, its both a bit of a wankfest and a tuning aid, moreso the latter if they put in the air fuel ratio at each point via a oxygen sensor in the exhaust so they can tell where its running rich or running lean so you can hopefully improve the performance.

mp3 of a car doin one (smaller than the google videos)
