Actually it's to show what the people went through. Crucible means a severe test or trial. that's what the characters go trough.
A crucible is a small container used to superheat objects for purification purposes. It is also a trial or test. The charactors of The Crucible go through some extremely difficult tests in the course of the play, as the previous user did explain. They are also in this proverbial "crucible" (in their eyes) of clensing the land of all evil (the "witches"). Of course, the whole thing could have been avoided if they had only taken their punishment and behaved.
