TEST, sometimes referred to as The Test Stage, The Coffee Shop, The Pub or The Bar, is a stage in Super Smash Bros. Melee that can only be accessed through the debug menu with an Action Replay; the stage is not used in the game normally.
The background of the stage has an image of the now-closed Caffe Verona[1] in Palo Alto, California, hence its nicknames. The platforms are all gray polygons and come in different sizes, with no textures. Some of these platforms are immobile, while some move vertically. The stage is very wide and stretches out at a long distance. The player can use any item, enemies, or other objects that the debug menu allows players to use. The Corneria stage music plays on this level.
The background image, while looking highly unusual for a Smash Bros. game, is actually a common test image used in 3D graphics. Some OpenGL books have exercises that involve adding the texture of a coffee shop or a bar to round objects or similar models.
