AI and LLM testing

AI testing evaluates probabilistic outputs for qualities such as faithfulness, relevance, safety, robustness, fairness, and task success.

Why this capability matters

Traditional pass/fail tests are not enough when outputs vary, models change, and quality depends on context.

What competent practice includes

Golden-dataset design
Task-specific evaluation criteria
RAG and prompt regression testing
Adversarial cases
Quality gates in delivery pipelines
Portfolio evidence

An evaluation harness with documented cases, scoring logic, baseline results, regression thresholds, and a findings report.
