Description

The unit tests largely ensure that the modules run and create reasonable results. They are sensitive to silent failures in model performance. For example, I could write a poor pull request that only includes a portion of the predictions and the current tests wouldn't be able to spot that. We need both visual cues that can be visualized for changes as well as better understanding on expected results given a particular image.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the existing unit tests and how they validate model predictions for a particular image. Define the expected results and visual cues needed to detect incomplete or degraded predictions, then use those criteria to determine what stronger CI coverage would consider done.
