SDC Tool Competition

Self-driving cars (SDCs) are equipped with onboard cameras and various sensors have already demonstrated the possibility of autonomous driving in real environments, leading to great interest in various application domains. However, despite the necessity of systematically testing such complex and automated systems to ensure their safe operation in real-world environments, there has been relatively limited investment in this direction so far.

The SDC Testing Competition is an initiative designed to inspire and encourage the Software Testing Community to direct their attention toward SDCs as a rapidly emerging and crucial domain. The competition's current focus is on regression testing for test suites executing system tests of SDCs in simulation. Regression testing involves test selection, prioritization, and minimization.
