You've defined what success looks like for your agent. Now it's time to put those criteria into practice by testing the agent. Just as students take quizzes to demonstrate what they've learned, your agent needs a set of test cases to show whether it can handle the tasks you've designed it for.
Testing with examples isn't about catching your agent doing something wrong. It's about learning where the agent performs well and where it needs improvement. By the end of this chapter, you'll have a practical testing framework you can use to measure your assistant's performance and track its progress over time.
