👉 Evaluation engineering is the systematic process of designing, implementing, and maintaining a robust framework for assessing the performance, reliability, and effectiveness of software systems and components. It involves defining clear metrics and criteria for evaluation, selecting appropriate testing methodologies, and establishing processes to collect, analyze, and interpret data. This approach ensures that evaluations are consistent, repeatable, and aligned with stakeholder expectations, ultimately leading to improved software quality, faster identification of issues, and better decision-making throughout the development lifecycle.
