Agent evaluation differs from traditional software testing: traditional testing relies on preset test cases and its pass rate can be determined in one go, whereas Agent behavior is generated by a model in open contexts, making test cases difficult to enumerate exhaustively.

VerifiedAn effective Agent testing approach is a combined strategy of layered testing, sandbox isolation, decision-execution decoupling, and human-in-the-loop, rather than reliance on a single tool.79% similarUnverifiedIn coding scenarios, agents may generate patches that pass unit tests but progressively diverge from users' actual specifications.77% similarUnverifiedA common approach to countering agents amplifying the spread of over-design is to explicitly add constraints to the agent context (such as 'only implement the requirements covered by the current test cases, do not add unused parameters or configuration options'), and to make 'whether it serves the current requirement' a separate review question in the review step.77% similarUnverifiedThe success criteria for an Agent must be machine-verifiable, rather than relying on the Agent's own subjective judgment.76% similarUnverifiedIn the agent loop, a large share of token consumption comes from the agent repeatedly making small judgments (such as safety gates, format checks, and whether to hand off to a human), rather than from executing the task itself.76% similar
