Covers eval file format, all assertion types, CLI usage, and per-primitive testing patterns. license MIT ADK Evals Skill What are Evals? Evals are automated conversation tests for ADK agents. Each eval defines a scenario — a sequence of user messages or events — and asserts on what the bot should do: what it says, which tools it calls, how state changes, which workflows run, and more. Evals run against a live dev bot ( adk dev ), so they test the full stack — not mocks. When to Use This Skill Use this skill when the developer asks about: Writing evals — file format, assertions, turn types, setup Running evals — CLI commands, filtering, output interpretation Testing specific primitives — how to test actions, tools, workflows, conversations, state The testing loop — write → run → inspect traces → iterate CI integration — exit codes, --format json flag, tagging strategies Eval configuration — idleTimeout, judgePassThreshold, judgeModel Or when you are developing an ADK bot and need to write the equivalent of unit/end-to-end tests. Trigger questions: \"How do I write an eval?\" \"How do I test my workflow?\" \"How do I assert that a tool was called with specific params?\" \"My eval is failing, how do I debug it?\" \"How do I test that the bot stays silent?\" \"How do I run evals in CI?\" \"How do I seed state before an eval?\" \"How do I trigger a workflow in an eval?\" Available Documentation File Contents references/eval-format.md Complete file format — all fields, turn types, assertion categories, match operators, setup, outcome, options references/testing-workflow.md Running evals, interpreting output, using traces, the write → test → iterate loop, CI integration references/test-patterns.md Per-primitive patterns for actions, tools, workflows, conversations, and state How to Answer Writing an eval → Read eval-format.md for structure and assertions Running evals → Read testing-workflow.md for CLI commands and output Testing a specific primitive → Read test-patterns.md for the relevant section Debugging a failure → Combine testing-workflow.md (inspect traces) + eval-format.md (check assertion syntax) Quick Reference Eval file structure import { Eval } from '@botpress/evals' export default new Eval ({ name : 'greeting' , type : 'regression' , tags : [ 'basic' ], setup : { state : { bot : { welcomeSent : false } }, workflow : { trigger : 'onboarding' , input : { userId : 'test-1' } }, }, conversation : [ { user : 'Hi!' , assert : { response : [{ not_contains : 'error' }, { llm_judge : 'Response is friendly and offers to help' }], tools : [{ not_called : 'createTicket' }], state : [{ path : 'conversation.greeted' , equals : true }], }, }, ], outcome : { state : [{ path : 'conversation.greeted' , equals : true }], }, options : { idleTimeout : 60000 , judgePassThreshold : 4 , }, }) Turn types Turn When to use user: 'message' Standard user message event: { payload } Push a custom event (arrives as chat:custom ) expectSilence: true Assert bot does NOT respond Assertion categories Category What it checks response Bot reply text (contains, not_contains, matches, llm_judge) tools Tool calls (called, not_called, call_order, params) state Bot/user/conversation state (equals, changed) workflow Workflow execution (entered, completed) timing Response time in ms (lte, gte) CLI commands adk evals # run all evals adk evals <name> # run one eval adk evals --tag <tag> # filter by tag adk evals -- type regression # filter by type adk evals --verbose # show all assertions adk evals --format json # JSON output for CI adk evals runs # list recent runs adk evals runs --latest # most recent run adk evals runs --latest -v # with full details Critical Patterns ✅ Every turn needs user or event // CORRECT { user : 'hello' , expectSilence : true } { event : { payload : { kind : 'payment.failed' } }, expectSilence : true } ❌ expectSilence alone is not a valid turn // WRONG — missing user or event { expectSilence : true } ✅ Assert tool params to verify correct extraction // CORRECT — verifies the LLM extracted the right values { called : 'createTicket' , params : { priority : { equals : 'high' } } } ❌ Only asserting the tool was called // INCOMPLETE — doesn't verify params were correct { called : 'createTicket' } ✅ Use outcome for post-conversation state and workflow assertions // CORRECT — final state checked once after all turns outcome : { state : [{ path : 'conversation.resolved' , equals : true }], workflow : [{ name : 'ticketFlow' , completed : true }], } ✅ Seed state to test conditional behavior without running setup turns // CORRECT — start in a known state setup : { state : { user : { plan : 'pro' }, conversation : { phase : 'support' }, }, } ❌ Using conversation turns to set up state (slow and fragile) // WRONG — depends on the bot correctly processing setup turns conversation : [ { user : 'I am on the pro plan' }, // hoping bot sets user.plan { user : 'I need help with billing' }, // actual test turn ] Example Questions Writing evals: \"Write an eval that tests my createTicket tool is called with the right priority\" \"How do I assert that the bot stays silent after an internal event?\" \"How do I test a multi-turn conversation where context is retained?\" Running evals: \"How do I run only regression evals?\" \"How do I see which assertions failed and why?\" \"How do I integrate evals into GitHub Actions?\" Debugging: \"My eval says the tool wasn't called but I think it was — how do I check?\" \"How do I inspect what the bot actually did during an eval?\" Per-primitive: \"How do I test a workflow that uses step.sleep()?\" \"How do I test that state changed from the seeded value?\" Response Format Match depth to the question. Simple questions (\"what assertions are available?\", \"how do I run evals?\") Answer directly — show the relevant table or CLI command. Don't generate a full eval file for an informational question. Writing an eval Show the complete new Eval({}) call with realistic field values Include imports ( import { Eval } from '@botpress/evals' ) Briefly explain non-obvious assertions — skip if the assertion is self-explanatory Suggest the CLI command to run it: adk evals <name> Debugging a failing eval Ask for or show the failing assertion ( expected / actual diff) Suggest opening traces in the Dev Console to see what the bot did Identify whether the issue is in the eval assertion or the bot's behavior",
