Can FutureSmart Database Agent answer a follow-up that refers to the previous answer?

FutureSmart Database Agent handled the follow-up for the same five customers returned before. It returned those five names again and reported order counts of 10, 9, 8, 6, and 5, with a total of 38.

The test case

Each test case is judged on its own: Pass, Fail, Not gradable, or Untested. The scenario result above is based on this test case.

"They" refers to the previous answer's setPassEvidence
What we sent

Input 1: “Who are our top 5 customers by total spend?”

Input 2: “How many orders did they place in the last 90 days?”

What the tool returned

Response 1 replies to Input 1.

Response 2 replies to Input 2.

Response to input 1 Top 5 Customers by Total Spend These customers represent the highest total spend across all orders.

Total orders placed by these top-5 customers in the last 90 days: 38. These figures represent the order volume for each of the highest-spending customers during the specified period.

Expected vs. Found
✓Expected: The follow-up should answer for the same set the first answer returned, without re-asking who they are or changing the set.Found: It returned the same five customers as turn 1, resolved the reference itself without asking, and reported counts 10, 9, 8, 6, 5 and a total of 38.

Why this result

The follow-up used the same five customers, resolved the referent itself, and returned their order counts and total, so it satisfies the scenario.

Also observed in this test case

Window drift risk. Turn 2 counted orders from the 90 days before it ran, so a later rerun can change the counts if the data or day changes.

Recomputed referent. The follow-up rebuilt the top-five set instead of reusing the names from the first answer, but the same five customers came out here.

Trace appears on refresh. The trace strip and the help panel appeared only after a browser refresh.

Limitations of this result

Proof 2 is cropped to the answer and does not show the user's message; it is matched to turn 2 by the 38 total and five rows.

Proof 3's query recomputes the top five by spend instead of reusing turn 1's list. The two sets match here, so this run does not show a differing set.

Configuration and setup

How this tool was set up for the run and what the test needed in place. Each row is a fact from the run's records; a fact the records do not hold is left out, not guessed.

Set up before the run
The first answer had to return a small, stable customer set so the follow-up could use that same set.

How this scenario is graded

How we decide Pass, Fail and Not gradable. The same rules apply to every tool tested on this scenario.

How results are decided

Each test case gets one result per tool: Pass, Fail or Not gradable. A test case we haven't run yet shows Untested. There are no partial results.

The rules
  • Pass: the tool did everything the test expected, and nothing it said contradicts the correct answer.
  • Fail: at least one expected behaviour clearly didn't happen; the test case's result says which one and quotes the tool.
  • Not gradable: our evidence couldn't settle the outcome (for example a record we needed is missing). It is never counted as a fail, and the test case's result says what's missing.

History of this result

What has happened to this result since it was first published. Runs and grades are never overwritten: a retest or a re-grade publishes a new result and keeps the earlier one readable.

Act on this result

Nothing filed here edits the run or the grade. A challenge opens a review, and a review can produce a new run or a re-grade — which becomes the current result and leaves this one in the history.

This matches what I see

You run the same kind of test against your own setup and get the same behaviour.
