sim-bug-tools

sim_bug_tools is a python toolkit for exploring bugs in software simulations. This module consists of python classes for describing, navigating, and interacting with software simulations to find bugs or other scenario outcomes based on geometric analysis of known information.

This module is developed for research in scenario-based testing for the validation and verification (V&V) of autonomous vehicles (AV). We were frustrated by the limitations imposed by time and resource cost of the AV V&V testing process given the many configurations of parameters for AV Testing. This module contains the tools we use to understand and navigate these high-dimensional spaces.
