Abstract

Examples described herein are directed to systems and methods for autonomous vehicle control system testing. A testing utility may receive log data describing a first location of a capturing vehicle at a first driven route time and a second location of the capturing vehicle at a second drive route time. The testing utility may, using at least the location data, determine a first routing graph modification to constrain a navigator component of an autonomous vehicle control system under test. The testing utility may provide the first routing graph modification to the navigator component to cause the navigator component to generate a testing route.
