eVTR Software Application Test Trips File
MS Excel file contains sample eVTR trips with data sets that test both typical and atypical scenarios. GARFO maintains an identical set of sample eVTR trips in our automated test system, so that we can verify how our API has managed them. This eliminates uncertainty both for developers and for GARFO personnel.
