Sumario:In this talk, we will give an overview of several recent measurements, performed at the ATLAS detector, which test the electroweak sector of the Standard Model to highest precision and allow for precision tests of perturbative QCD predictions. Cross section measurements of multi boson final states test the gauge structure of the Standard Model. Differential cross-section measurements of single vector bosons in the final state, also in association with jets, have been performed at all available center of mass energies and provide important information for advanced theoretical predictions as well as the parton density functions of the boson. These measurements build the basis for the first precision measurement of the W boson mass at the LHC.
