Autonomous quality test system for a vehicle

A computer-implemented method when executed by data processing hardware causes the data processing hardware to perform operations comprising:

• maneuvering, autonomously, a vehicle along a test track;
• monitoring, via at least one audio sensor, audio data from the vehicle during the maneuvering of the vehicle along the test track;
• monitoring, via a monitoring system disposed along the test track, monitoring data of the vehicle along the test track;
• executing, based on the monitored audio data, a sound detection function of an autonomous test algorithm;
• detecting, via the sound detection function, an error noise;
• categorizing, via a categorization function of the autonomous test algorithm, the detected error noise;
• identifying, based on the categorized error noise, a maintenance station;
• and
• executing, in response to the identified maintenance station and categorized error noise, a spontaneous path planning function of the autonomous test algorithm.
