Original Abstract Submitted
Aspects of the disclosed technology provide solutions for autonomous vehicle (AV) testing and in particular, for providing a bot orchestrator to test various use cases on a fleet management system. A process of the disclosed technology can include steps for receiving, at a fleet management system, a first dispatch request, the first dispatch request indicating a first pick-up location and sending, from the fleet management system, a first dispatch command to an autonomous vehicle (AV). In some aspects, the process can further include steps for receiving, at a bot orchestrator, a first provisioning request, the first provisioning requesting specifying one or more AV parameters and instantiating, by the bot orchestrator, one or more AV bots based on the provisioning request. Systems and machine-readable media are also provided.
