You are correct. When assembly is completed, each car is put onto a four wheel rolling road and tested. The cars are then taken out onto a closed test course around the assembly plant to bed in the brakes and test other functions, systems. After a few laps the cars go back into the factory for final inspection, detailing and preparation for shipping.
I visited the Tochigi assembly plant while in Japan back in November 2010 and saw this with my own eyes.
