Eval-Driven Development for LLM Apps: A Practical Workflow

TDD doesn't work on non-deterministic LLM outputs. Eval-driven development is the analog: paired prompt-expectation sets, rule-based or LLM-judge scoring, run as a regression suite on every change. Tools (promptfoo, Braintrust, OpenAI Evals), real customer-support example, and what evals catch that code review misses.
