How we Moved from LLM Scorers to Agentic Evals?

Evaluating LLM applications primarily focuses on testing an application end-to-end to ensure it performs consistently and reliably. We previously covered traditional text-based LLM evaluation methods like BLEU or ROUGE. Those classical reference-based NLP metrics are useful for tasks such as translation or summarization, where the goal is simply to match a reference output.
