DeepEval is an Apache-2.0 Python framework for evaluating LLM apps, RAG systems, agents, MCP workflows, and safety behavior with repeatable test cases. It works locally and in CI/CD, then connects to Confident AI for hosted reports, observability, red teaming, and governance when teams need shared evidence instead of ad-hoc prompt reviews and manual QA.

Promptfoo is an OpenAI-owned open-source toolkit for evaluating, red-teaming and securing LLM applications. It supports config-driven prompt/model tests, CI regression gates, red-team scans, guardrails, model security workflows, MCP Proxy, code scanning and evaluations across prompts, agents and RAG pipelines.

TruLens is an open-source framework for evaluating and tracking LLM experiments with feedback functions, RAG triad metrics (answer relevance, context relevance, groundedness), and Honest/Harmless/Helpful evaluations. Features a unified Metric API for systematic evaluation of RAG pipelines and AI agents. 3,200+ GitHub stars, MIT licensed. Snowflake partnership adds enterprise integration. Supports LangChain, LlamaIndex, and custom LLM applications.

Braintrust is an AI observability and evaluation platform for tracing LLM applications, building datasets, running prompt/model experiments, scoring outputs and turning production feedback into regression tests. It fits teams that need repeatable quality gates for AI releases rather than one-off prompt demos.
