What are the goals of this workshop?

* Take you behind the scenes of the video above,
* show you how the video and our continuous integration connect,
* discuss **together** how we should continue.

Outlook: Possibilities
----------------------

To us, it feels like we can finally leverage all of the power the simulation brings.
While there are many ways we can go from here, not all are equally obvious and valuable.

A blatantly obvious and small step is to

* *Write* **more** *tests on* **more** *roads to cover* **more**...

However, there are more ambitious and long term plans, we could pursue:

* Create a **test suite** and produce a detailed report of mistakes that were made
* Write a search routine to explicitly search for mistakes

Things to consider:

* *Proceed carefully to ensure that the test results are representative of the car's real behavior.*
