AQA operates as a daily heartbeat, not a quarterly audit. You'll master the 7-step QA loop: capturing telemetry, validating reasoning, measuring drift, triaging anomalies, reporting evidence, feeding back to AgentOps, and resetting. This is the runbook that keeps autonomy bounded and improvable under real-world conditions.

Not all errors are equal. You'll implement risk-tiered validation, applying strict human-reviewed checks to high-risk flows (regulatory/safety) while automating low-risk validation. Learn five field-proven best practices—from replay QA for regression detection to self-testing patterns—and build triage playbooks with clear escalation paths and SLAs.
