AdaT: Adaptive Test Transformations for Black-Box Boundary Testing of Conversational Agents

Liting Lin, Boxi Yu, Qinghua Xu +3

Conversational agents based on large language models (LLMs) must comply with policies. Each condition in a policy draws a boundary between user requests, and the agent must behave…

DreamTest: World-Model Surrogates for Search-Based Testing of Deep Reinforcement Learning Agents

Qinghua Xu, Guancheng Wang, Boxi Yu +2

Testing deep reinforcement learning (DRL) agents in cyber-physical systems aims to uncover diverse failures before deployment, but each execution can be expensive. Surrogate-assist…
