自动导引车 (AGV) 是可以在仓库中运输货物的无人驾驶车辆。 AGV 由车载 AGV 控制软件控制。由于多台AGV在仓库环境中以分散的方式运行，因此可能会出现冲突。因此，彻底测试 AGV 控制软件是否真正以适当的方式处理潜在冲突至关重要。在本文中，我们采用模拟仓库环境来测试AGV控制软件。 AGV控制软件嵌入在模拟仓库环境中并激活。模拟仓库环境通过以下方式为测试提供支持：（1）以显式方式表示仓库环境中的动态性，以及（2）以自动化方式检测动态性冲突。该方法以测试碰撞避免的情况进行说明。
Automatic Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are unmanned vehicles that can transport loads in a warehouse. AGVs are instructed by on-board AGV control software. As multiple AGVs operate in a decentralized manner in the warehouse environment, conflicts may arise. Consequently, it is crucial to test thoroughly whether the AGV control software actually handles the potential conflicts in the appropriate way. In this paper, we employ a simulated warehouse environment to test the AGV control software. The AGV control software is embedded and activated in the simulated warehouse environment. The simulated warehouse environment provides support for testing by means of (1) representing dynamism in the warehouse environment in an explicit manner, and (2) detecting conflicts of dynamism in an automated way. The approach is illustrated for the case of testing collision avoidance.
