Testing goals
We test for decision quality, not just map output speed. A route is considered high quality when it consistently supports a stated objective under realistic uncertainty.
Core dimensions
- Time reliability: variance between planned and actual completion.
- Operational friction: parking, access, and stop-duration impact.
- Decision stability: whether threshold rules reduce unnecessary reroutes.
- Safety load: cognitive burden from route complexity and mid-trip changes.
Scenario design
Guides are evaluated against practical scenarios: commuting, multi-stop errands, road trips, delivery operations, weather disruptions, and event traffic. Recommendations are retained only when they hold up across repeated runs.
Revision criteria
Pages are revised when new recurring failure patterns are identified, workflow steps can be clarified materially, or user feedback indicates a meaningful usability gap.
