Frequently asked questions
Which benchmark is best for a coding agent?
Start with HumanEval or MBPP for quick, cheap signal. For realistic repo-level work, move to SWE-bench, which tests actual GitHub issue resolution.
How do I benchmark an agent that browses the web?
Use WebArena for end-to-end web task completion, WebVoyager if your agent relies on screenshots and visual UI understanding, or Mind2Web for broad domain coverage.
What benchmark measures multi-agent teamwork?
AgentBench covers multi-environment decision making, while BenchMAX focuses on negotiation and collaboration between multiple agents.
How much should I budget for a single evaluation run?
Simple multiple-choice benchmarks cost $5–$100. Realistic web, desktop, or security benchmarks can cost $500–$10,000+ per run depending on model choice and retry count.
