There are however a number of tests which are designed to simulate bits and pieces of living (such as a dinner party, and doing the laundry). Understanding how the house works in real life is really important though, so once we're done in Madrid it'll come back to Nottingham to be occupied and monitored so that we can learn how it performs (or doesn't).
