Simulate Conversations and Debug

Before you launch your assistant, it's crucial to simulate real conversations and debug any issues. The DIRTBox and Tests tabs make this easy.

Simulate in DIRTBox​

  • Try out different user journeys by sending messages in the DIRTBox
  • Test how your assistant handles variables, conditions, and logic branches
  • Explore edge cases and unexpected inputs
  • See exactly how your flows behave in real time

Debug with Test Cases​

  • Create test cases for tricky or important scenarios
  • Check that your assistant responds correctly to all types of input
  • Use failed tests to pinpoint and fix bugs

Why Simulate and Debug?​

  • Prevents surprises when your assistant goes live
  • Ensures a smooth, reliable user experience
  • Helps you catch and fix issues early
