Shared Test Cases

Tests in this directory are agent-agnostic and can be used to test any agent that follows the same core rules.

Purpose

Shared tests validate universal behaviors that all agents should follow:

• Approval gate enforcement
• Tool usage patterns
• Basic workflow compliance
• Error handling

Usage

Run Shared Tests for OpenAgent

npm run eval:sdk -- --pattern="shared/**/*.yaml" --agent=openagent

Run Shared Tests for OpenCoder

npm run eval:sdk -- --pattern="shared/**/*.yaml" --agent=opencoder

Override Agent in Test File

# In the YAML file
agent: openagent  # Change to opencoder, or any other agent

Test Categories

common/ - Universal Rules

Tests that apply to all agents:

• approval-gate-basic.yaml - Basic approval enforcement
• tool-usage-basic.yaml - Basic tool selection (future)
• error-handling-basic.yaml - Basic error handling (future)

Adding New Shared Tests

1. Create test in shared/tests/common/
2. Use generic prompts (not agent-specific)
3. Test universal behaviors only
4. Tag with shared-test and agent-agnostic
5. Document which agents it applies to

Example

id: shared-example-001
name: Example Shared Test
category: edge-case
agent: openagent  # Default, can be overridden

prompt: "Generic prompt that works for any agent"

behavior:
  requiresApproval: true  # Universal rule

expectedViolations:
  - rule: approval-gate
    shouldViolate: false

tags:
  - shared-test
  - agent-agnostic

Benefits

1. Reduce Duplication - Write once, test multiple agents
2. Consistency - Same tests ensure consistent behavior
3. Easy Comparison - Compare agent behaviors side-by-side
4. Faster Onboarding - New agents inherit core test suite
