LiveEvalBench: Toward Open-World Evaluation for Web Generation

Read the original on arXiv AI →

arXiv:2608. 03689v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models are increasingly capable of synthesizing executable frontend projects, yet existing benchmarks still treat web generation as a static evaluation problem.

The Hard Part Comes After Search: Benchmarking Web Agents on Synthesizing, Organizing, and Displaying Knowledge

The paper introduces KNOWS, a benchmark for evaluating web agents that act as assistants by retrieving, synthesizing, and presenting information across complex, multi-step browser tasks. It outlines a task design rubric, evaluation protocol combining deterministic checks with LLM judgments, and reports that current agents achieve only modest success, with the best performing agent succeeding on less than 3% of tasks. The study highlights significant gaps in agents’ tool use, visual understanding, and long‑horizon reasoning.

WatchPoint: Executable User Feedback for Real-World Agentic Web Development

WatchPoint is a simulated‑user system that generates and runs diagnostic scripts against a live web application, producing structured observations to guide coding model retries. Unlike prior methods that rely on screenshots or non‑executable metrics, WatchPoint operates on Web‑Bench—a benchmark of 50 multi‑file web projects with 1,000 sequential tasks verified by deterministic end‑to‑end tests. It recovers 57.6% of diagnosed tasks, matching a human tester’s 54.5% recovery rate, and identifies when such simulated feedback is beneficial or should be withheld.
