Test an intent flow

Quickly run tests on your intent's conversation flow in NLX's Dialog Studio

What's Test mode?

Test mode on an intent flow allows you to isolate a specific conversation workflow for evaluation. You can also easily debug or test different parameters and translations belonging to your intent's flow.

Access

To access this feature, select your intent flow and click the Test tab to swap modes:

Requirements

The Dialog Studio NLU, your selected NLP, and any LLM(s) go to work whenever testing a conversation flow. Therefore, create a build at least once before using the intent flow Test feature.

  • Attach intent to a bot

  • Go to bot's Deployment tab

  • Review & build > Click Create a build

  • Navigate back to intent > select flow

  • Click Test option on the Canvas

Configure and debug

Within the Test chat's panel, you may either select the gear icon to set context or other settings for your test, or select the bug icon to review all events from your test transcript for troubleshooting.

  • Customize data: If you have used context attributes in your messages, select the Settings of the Test chat to enter values into the corresponding fields to test your flow. Simply enter data into an available context attribute field and click Save and refresh.

  • Event details: To debug events in your intent flow, select a bot message in the transcript window. Click the expand caret on any item to view the NLU's details.
