Even small tweaks to components like your prompt versions, agent orchestration, and models can have large and unexpected impacts.  Some of the top challenges include: Non-deterministic outputs The underlying issue at hand is that agents are non-deterministic. The same input goes in, two different outputs can come out.  How do you test for an expected outcome when you don’t know what the expected outcome will be?
