Testing Framework (A2TF)
A²TF (Agentic Asset Testing Framework) is a no-code testing framework for MCP Servers and Agent Cards, with a test-first mindset.
Overview
A²TF lets you design test cases, build suites, and execute them against mock or production endpoints — without writing code. It supports MCP protocol and A2A protocol validation.
Key modules:
- Dashboard — Metrics, tests by type, execution summary
- Design — Test cases, datasets, and scenarios per asset
- Execution — Build suites and run tests
- Test Runs — Filter and inspect run history
Relation to Test Lab
Test Lab is the in-app entry point for execution and exploratory sessions. A²TF provides the full design and execution workflow and may be available as a dedicated subdomain (e.g., a2tf.a2d-ai.com).
Dashboard
View at-a-glance metrics:
- Number of tests
- Tests by type (functional, integration, compliance, security, semantic)
- Passed and failed executions
- Summary graphs: progress, failure rate, trends
Design Module
Organize tests by asset in a tree view:
- MCP Servers — Tests and data per server
- Agent Cards — Tests and data per card
Test Types
- Functional — Input/output verification
- Compliance — MCP/A2A protocol validation, structure checks
- Security — Authentication, PII handling
Data and Scenarios
Under each asset:
- Tests — Define test cases with assertions
- Data — Datasets and scenarios for tools (MCP) or prompts (Agent Cards)
Environments
Configure testing endpoints (mock vs production) at the server or card level.
Execution Module
Build and run test suites:
- Suites grouped by creation date (YYYY-MM-CW)
- Drag and drop tests from Design into suites
- Execute via the same engine as the Protocol Tester
- Results saved with detailed reports
Test Runs Module
Filter and inspect past runs:
- Status, test name, linked asset
- Date and time
- Tools and data used
- Open reports for full details
Platform MCP Integration
AI agents can run suites and fetch results via Platform MCP:
run_suite— Execute a test suiteget_run_results— Retrieve run results by ID
Next Steps
- Test Lab — Execution, Exploratory, Test Runs
- Platform MCP — Automate test execution
- Protocol Tester — Manual MCP testing
A²TF makes agent asset testing accessible without code.
