  1. To begin tests from Agentforce Studio, select Tests. You’ll see your existing test suites including the agent and version each suite is configured to test. To create a test suite, select New Suite.
  2. Enter a name. Optionally, add a description.
    A new test suite with the conversation level testing scope selected.
  3. Select the agent and version you want to test.
    Note
    Note Agent version and testing considerations:
    • The agent you select to test impacts the test conditions, type, and data available for testing. To generate test scenarios from your knowledge base, the agent must be linked to a data library containing that information. Similarly, to generate tests for subagents or actions, the agent must be assigned those subagents and actions.
    • The version selector defaults to the latest version of your agent. To test a different version, select it from the dropdown.
    • Switching versions clears the current results in the test worksheet, but previous results remain available in test run history.
    • Your agent version must be committed to appear in the Testing Center.
    • Draft agent versions and Agentforce Employee Agents aren't supported for conversation-level testing.
  4. Under Test Scope, select how much of the interaction you want to measure and score.
    • Turn-Level. Evaluates a single agent response in isolation. Use turn-level testing to validate prompt changes, verify reasoning quality at a specific step, or confirm accurate knowledge retrieval.
    • Conversation-Level. Evaluates a full multi-turn conversation from start to finish. Use conversation-level testing to assess whether your agent achieves the user's goal across an entire interaction.
