Autonomous vehicles testing methods review

Abstract

Driving test is critical to the deployment of autonomous vehicles. It is necessary to review the related works since the methodologies summaries are rare, which will help to set up an integrated method for autonomous driving test in different development stages, and help to provide a reliable, quick, safe, low cost and reproducible method and accelerate the development of autonomous vehicle. In this paper, we review the related autonomous driving test works, including autonomous vehicle functional verification, vehicle integrated testing, system validation in different architectures. This review work will be helpful for autonomous vehicle development.
