Recent progress in observing and data reduction methods for precise mass and mass-luminosity determinations in binary systems are briefly reviewed. The foundations appear to have been laid for a new burst of accurate data. Detailed model simulations of the individual systems are the best way to use these data to critically test the theoretical models and advance our understanding of the evolution of single and binary stars.
