I am sure they are testing it but that really looks like fun firing things off a carrier with a catapult.
When I worked in a brewery laboratory we ended up testing all sorts of stuff. The most fun was lobbing 10 gallon (45 litre) kegs off a 5th floor roof to see what happens (they survived). Cannot imagine the faces of the health and safety crew now if we tried that.

Watch the Navy's Railgun Catapult Skip a 4-Ton Cart Like a Stone
Someday it'll launch planes, but for now this is plenty impressive
