Enhance Regression Testing and Implement Eval
Class for Robust Agent Evaluation

good first issue
Good for newcomers
I wanted to bring up the subject of our regression testing and the potential for a new, more comprehensive approach to evaluating our agents' performance. Currently, our regression testing is limited mainly to search functionality, which leaves a lot of our codebase under-tested. A robust and comprehensive testing framework is critical to ensuring code quality, catching bugs early, and facilitating smooth code integration. It's also a key contributor to long-term code maintainability.
To this end, I propose two main initiatives:
Expand our Regression Testing: By enhancing our suite of regression tests, we can ensure that changes in one part of our code don't break something somewhere else. This will help us maintain system integrity and minimize the risks associated with ongoing development.
Introduce an Evaluation Suite with Eval Class: In addition to expanded regression testing, we should consider implementing a comprehensive evaluation suite featuring an Eval class. This class will allow us to evaluate how well our agents are performing by comparing their actions with expected outcomes.
Here's a rough skeleton of how the Eval class could look like:
Logic for the old Eval implementation can be seen here.
The Eval class's primary purpose is to take a set of instructions and corresponding expected actions and evaluate whether the instruction execution generates the anticipated actions. It's important to note that a good suite of evaluations won't necessarily pass with 100% success, but rather it will provide us a performance baseline and a clear target to strive for.
As always, don't hesitate to ask if you have any questions or need further clarification. Your contributions to this project are highly valued!
