Evaluate your Amazon Nova Sonic voice agent at scale, no microphone required
Amazon Web Services has released an open-source framework called the Nova Sonic Test Harness to automate the testing of voice agents. This tool addresses the challenges of evaluating voice-based AI, which are more complex than text-based chatbots due to real-time audio streaming, non-deterministic responses, and multi-turn context. The harness allows developers to rapidly iterate on system prompts and tool configurations and provides a comprehensive evaluation of voice agent quality at scale, detecting issues like audio-text divergence without requiring physical microphones.
