Prompt Testing

Noun · AI & Machine Learning

Definitions

  1. The practice of testing prompts against known cases, edge conditions, and regression suites to verify behavior before release. Prompt testing is necessary because even tiny wording changes can shift outputs substantially.

    In plain English: Testing prompts to make sure they still behave correctly.

    Example: "They added prompt testing to CI after a harmless-looking phrasing change broke JSON compliance in production."
