Yes, this is an issue. It hasn't been that long ago that DARPA ran the challenges that led to the proof of concept for self-driving, autonomously navigating robot vehicles. Some of the technology became the selling point for various automobiles with some of the promises still lacking in deliverable results. You have to test all this to know whether it will work and eventually some of the tests need to shift from a workstation to the real world. Like the Air Force and their recent conversion of some fighters to unpiloted planes, this will all happen and one day it will be the norm. If we're all lucky all the test failures will happen on a server somewhere instead of out here in real life.
