Регрессионное тестирование при обновлении моделей

Почему обновления моделей нарушают работу промптов

Проблема обновления моделей

MODEL_HISTORY = [
    {'model': 'gpt-4', 'deployed': '2023-03-14', 'pass_rate': 0.87},
    {'model': 'gpt-4-turbo', 'deployed': '2023-11-06', 'pass_rate': 0.91},
    {'model': 'gpt-4o', 'deployed': '2024-05-13', 'pass_rate': 0.93},
    {'model': 'gpt-4o-2024-11-20', 'deployed': '2024-11-20', 'pass_rate': None},  # to be measured
]

# Goal: measure pass_rate for the new model before deploying to production

Запуск набора тестов на новой модели

import openai
client = openai.OpenAI(api_key='sk-...')

    results = []
    for test in test_cases:

            model=model,
            messages=[
                {'role': 'system', 'content': system_prompt},
                {'role': 'user', 'content': test['input']}
            ],
            temperature=0
        )
        output = resp.choices[0].message.content
        passed = test['evaluator'](output)
        results.append({'id': test['id'], 'passed': passed, 'output': output})
    pass_rate = sum(r['passed'] for r in results) / len(results)
    return results, pass_rate

old_results, old_rate = run_suite_on_model(TEST_CASES, PROMPT, 'gpt-4o')

Сравнение результатов разных версий модели

def diff_results(old_results, new_results):
    old_by_id = {r['id']: r for r in old_results}

        old_r = old_by_id.get(test_id)
        if old_r is None:
            continue
        if old_r['passed'] and not new_r['passed']:
            regressions.append({'id': test_id, 'old_output': old_r['output'], 'new_output': new_r['output']})
        elif not old_r['passed'] and new_r['passed']:
            improvements.append({'id': test_id})

    print(f'Regressions: {len(regressions)}')
    print(f'Improvements: {len(improvements)}')
    for reg in regressions:
        print(f'  REGRESSED: {reg["id"]}')
        print(f'    Old: {reg["old_output"][:60]}')
        print(f'    New: {reg["new_output"][:60]}')
    return regressions, improvements

regressions, improvements = diff_results(old_results, new_results)

Отслеживание версии модели в журналах тестирования

Расследование регрессий

def investigate_regression(test_id, old_output, new_output, prompt, user_input):
    # Step 1: check if old behavior was actually wrong
    judge_prompt = (
        f'Given this task prompt: {prompt}\n'
        f'And this user input: {user_input}\n\n'
        f'Which output is better?\n'
        f'A) {old_output}\n'
        f'B) {new_output}\n\n'
        'Reply with A or B and one sentence explanation.'
    )
    resp = client.chat.completions.create(
        model='gpt-4o',
        messages=[{'role': 'user', 'content': judge_prompt}],
        temperature=0
    )
    verdict = resp.choices[0].message.content
    print(f'Judge verdict for {test_id}: {verdict}')
    # If judge says B (new output) is better: update the test, not the prompt

Когда обновлять промпт, а когда — тест

    },
    'test_updated': {

Фиксация версий моделей

# Bad practice: alias can point to different model versions over time
client.chat.completions.create(
    model='gpt-4o',  # could be any version at any time

# Good practice: pin to a specific version for production
client.chat.completions.create(
    model='gpt-4o-2024-11-20',  # guaranteed behavior
    messages=[...]
)

# Track in config
