Sandbox testing

Test an agent in isolation, compare behavior, and review edge cases before relying on it.

Use the sandbox before production

Sandbox creates an isolated test session for one of your deployed agents. It supports a Single Thread and an A/B Compare mode, editable Sandbox Settings, session credit totals, image input up to 6 MB, and session reset controls.

Start a test session

  1. 01

    Open Sandbox

    Choose Sandbox in the Nerova app and select the agent you need to test.

  2. 02

    Choose a mode

    Use Single Thread for one conversation or A/B Compare to send the same prompt to Variant A and Variant B.

  3. 03

    Open Settings

    Adjust the sandbox-only settings for the selected agent or each comparison variant before starting the chat.

  4. 04

    Use a realistic request

    Send the same kind of prompt, context, ambiguity, or supported image the agent will receive in normal use.

  5. 05

    Inspect and reset

    Compare the full replies and session credits, then reset the thread or variant when you need a clean test.

Build a useful test set

  • A normal request with all required information.
  • A request with important information missing.
  • An unsupported or unsafe request that should be declined or escalated.
  • An ambiguous request that should trigger a clarifying question.
  • A request that depends on recently changed knowledge or instructions.
