SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Regression testing provides a disciplined protocol to distinguish true behavioral changes in LLM systems from random variation, enabling safe releases.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Determinism verification and baseline establishment before comparisons.
  • Controlled A/B style comparisons and bisect protocols to identify the source of regressions.
  • Documentation of runs and decision criteria to guide maintenance and audits.

Quick Start

Establish determinism, define a minimal regression test suite, run a controlled comparison, and bisect any regression to locate the source.

FAQPage Schema
How do I pinpoint regressions in LLM output across different versions?

To pinpoint regressions in LLM output, apply a controlled comparison protocol that establishes a baseline and executes a test suite across versions. This process isolates true behavioral changes from random variation by enforcing deterministic run parameters.

What is the best way to verify LLM determinism before running regression tests?

Verifying LLM determinism involves enforcing a deterministic configuration and consistent run parameters before establishing a baseline. This ensures that any output variations detected during subsequent test suite executions are true regressions rather than random model fluctuations.

How do I bisect LLM regressions to locate the source of output changes?

Bisecting LLM regressions uses a structured protocol to analyze test suite execution across versions and locate the source of output changes. It applies controlled A/B style comparisons to systematically narrow down the exact version introducing the behavioral shift.

Can I use controlled A/B comparisons to judge LLM improvements or regressions?

Yes, you can use controlled A/B style comparisons to judge LLM improvements or regressions by applying a structured process. This requires documenting run results and decision criteria to provide a disciplined framework for safe releases and audits.

When do I need to establish a baseline for my LLM test suite?

You need to establish a baseline for your LLM test suite before executing any controlled comparisons or bisect analysis. Baseline establishment captures the initial expected output behavior, which is required to measure and manage regression risk accurately.
