Testing Log

• The testing log is the record of all of the tests
  of the robot functions. This should include the
  day and date, time, what was tested, what were
  the results, what worked OK, what needs to be
  modified.
• The testing log could show the number of hours
  spent on a test track or in a wind tunnel for
  which there is a real cost. We are not charging
  for testing on the robot course, but we could
  have made it a part of the budget.
