Dipole resonance

This is directed to btrayfors because I know he'll be able to answer it, but please, anyone who knows the answer to this respond, I could use the help!

When building a dipole, once the math and cutting is done, how do you actually tune the dipole to the right length, etc, so that you know with certainty that it is resonating as well as it can ? What test equipment do I need to tune the dipole, and what is the best method for tuning it since I know that once you cut the wire it is cut and not easily made longer.

Thanks!
