Additional testing datasets cannot be created in Geti v3.0 (workaround and planned replacement)

[yvolokitin]

Geti™ v3.0 does not support the creation of additional datasets dedicated to evaluation/testing. We are redesigning a replacement for this important functionality as part of two upcoming features, to be released in a later version:

Dataset views
Image folder as source type

If you have any request or suggestion about these, feel free to leave a comment on the linked issues.

What changed
You cannot create separate testing datasets in v3.0 the way you could in v2.

Workaround
What is already possible:

1. Export the testing dataset from your Geti™ v2 instance.
2. Import it into an existing v3 project.
3. Manually assign that media to the 'Testing' subset, so it is excluded from training (the model won't see it at training time).

Planned replacements
Dataset views
Image folder as source type

Feedback
If dedicated testing datasets are important to your workflow, please share your use case in the comments or on the linked issues so we can factor it into the replacement design.
