Claim 16:
17. An autonomous vehicle comprising:
a set of sensors for generating sensor data;
a perception system configured to generate real-world perception data based on the sensor data, the real-world perception data being representative of one or more real-world objects in an environment of the autonomous vehicle perceived by the perception system based on the sensor data;
wherein the autonomous vehicle is configured to:
disable one or more aspects of the perception system such that the perception system ceases to generate real-world perception data based on the sensor data;
while the one or more aspects of the perception system are disabled, determine the location of the autonomous vehicle within a real-world vehicle testing space based on the sensor data and autonomously navigate through the real-world vehicle testing space;
process a first set of simulated perception data associated with a test scenario, the set of simulated perception data being processed in response to satisfaction of one or more trigger conditions associated with the test scenario; and
autonomously maneuver in response to processing the set of simulated perception data.
