I'm not sure where actual testing stands now. The idea as it has been put forward is to test frames that have been built using actual production equipment. The welding jigs each of which is also very complex, have been completed and assembled some weeks ago, so if testing was going to be done on production samples, then maybe that is either in the early stages now, or imminent.
There has been no further report that the laser cutter has been delivered, but since we get updates every 2 weeks, we don't know what has actually happened since the last update, which was about the welding jigs.
