A Test Track session is a day-long event where relevant members of the Drive Crew, along with involved core members, head towards the test track at the Waterloo Emergency Services Training and Research Center. These events will typically occur during Sundays and will involve testing features that is not possible to test in Mini Test Track sessions in the Parking Lot (mostly Path Planning). Logistical details for Test Track days can be found here.
A Mini Test Track session is a session lasting one or more hours in the parking lot of E5 where there is at least one Safety Driver, Pipeline Operator, and a Safety guardian. Safety procedures for regular Test Track Sessions should also be used for the Mini Test Track Sessions. These sessions will be scheduled regularly at a weekly basis, and occur whenever a Technical Lead, Manager, or Director wishes to schedule one. These sessions should be used to test features whenever possible for items that do not require a large amount of space to test, such as most Perception and Processing features. These sessions should also be used to confirm the current health of the software pipeline and training new pipeline operators.
