Usage Notes

1. Standard Tests: Can be run immediately with CSV datasets. Configure sample percentage and attack methods.
2. Custom Tests: Require system_description or policy_description in dataset_configuration:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   dataset_configuration:
     system_description: "Your system description here"
   
   redteam_test_configurations:
     adv_competitor_test:
       attack_methods:
         basic:
           basic:
             params: {}
       sample_percentage: 5
   

3. Custom Test Type: When selecting custom_test as the test type, it automatically runs adv_info_test, adv_command_test, and adv_bias_test together:
   Copy

   Ask AI

   dataset_configuration:
     system_description: "Your system description here"
   
   redteam_test_configurations:
     custom_test:
       attack_methods:
         basic:
           basic:
             params: {}
       sample_percentage: 5
   

   This is equivalent to running all three tests individually and provides comprehensive coverage of information extraction, command injection, and bias vulnerabilities. Note: For custom_test and adv_* tests, system_description or policy_description should be provided in dataset_configuration, not in params. The params section is reserved for attack-specific parameters (e.g., encoding iterations, branching factors, depth).
4. Test Combinations: Multiple tests can be run simultaneously. Use appropriate sample percentages to manage test duration.
