📰 Google AI Blog - Agent and Model Evaluations in Gemini Enterprise Agent Platform are now GA
Agent Platform's evaluation service is now generally available, providing developers with a unified engine to measure agent quality consistently across local development experiments and live production traffic. You can evaluate agents using over 20 pre-built metrics, DeepMind-backed adaptive rubrics, or custom code-based and LLM-as-a-judge metrics stored in a centralized, versioned registry. The service integrates directly into existing workflows via the Agent Platform SDK, agents-cli, and ADK, offering built-in user and environment simulators to automate complex multi-turn testing and streamline CI pipelines.
