## Introduction
|
||
|
||
### What is the Learning System?
|
||
|
||
The Learning System is a **reinforcement learning engine** that enables AQE agents to continuously improve their performance over time. Using Q-learning algorithms and A/B testing frameworks, agents learn from every task execution to optimize their strategies automatically.
|
||
|
||
### Why Use It?
|
||
|
||
**Key Benefits:**
|
||
- **20%+ Performance Improvement**: Achieve measurable improvements in coverage, quality, and speed
|
||
- **Automatic Optimization**: No manual tuning required - agents learn best strategies
|
||
- **Data-Driven Decisions**: Statistical confidence in strategy selection (95%+)
|
||
- **Continuous Learning**: Performance improves with every execution
|
||
- **Cross-Agent Sharing**: Agents can learn from each other's experiences
|
||
|
||
**Real-World Impact:**
|
||
```
|
||
Before Learning:
|
||
├─ Average Coverage: 78%
|
||
├─ Test Generation Time: 180ms
|
||
└─ Quality Score: 82%
|
||
|
||
After Learning (100 executions):
|
||
├─ Average Coverage: 94% (↑ 20.5%)
|
||
├─ Test Generation Time: 145ms (↓ 19.4%)
|
||
└─ Quality Score: 96% (↑ 17.1%)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### How It Works
|
||
|
||
The Learning System uses three core components:
|
||
|
||
1. **LearningEngine** - Q-learning algorithm for strategy optimization
|
||
2. **PerformanceTracker** - Real-time metric tracking and trend analysis
|
||
3. **ImprovementLoop** - Continuous A/B testing and automatic recommendation
|
||
|
||
```

||
## Quick Start
|
||
|
||
### Step 1: Enable Learning for an Agent
|
||
|
||
**CLI:**
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Enable learning for test generator
|
||
aqe learn enable --agent test-generator
|
||
|
||
# Enable for all agents
|
||
aqe learn enable --all
|
||
|
||
# Enable with custom config
|
||
aqe learn enable --agent test-generator \
|
||
--learning-rate 0.1 \
|
||
--exploration-rate 0.3
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Programmatic:**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
import { TestGeneratorAgent, LearningEngine, SwarmMemoryManager } from 'agentic-qe';
|
||
|
||
// Initialize memory store
|
||
const memory = new SwarmMemoryManager({ databasePath: './.aqe/memory.db' });
|
||
await memory.initialize();
|
||
|
||
// Create learning engine
|
||
const learningEngine = new LearningEngine('test-gen-1', memory, {
|
||
enabled: true,
|
||
learningRate: 0.1,
|
||
discountFactor: 0.95,
|
||
explorationRate: 0.3
|
||
});
|
||
|
||
await learningEngine.initialize();
|
||
|
||
// Create agent with learning enabled
|
||
const agent = new TestGeneratorAgent(
|
||
{ agentId: 'test-gen-1', memoryStore: memory },
|
||
{
|
||
targetCoverage: 95,
|
||
framework: 'jest',
|
||
enableLearning: true // ✅ Enable learning
|
||
}
|
||
);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 2: Basic Configuration
|
||
|
||
Create `.agentic-qe/learning-config.json`:
|
||
|
||
```json
|
||
{
|
||
"enabled": true,
|
||
"learningRate": 0.1,
|
||
"discountFactor": 0.95,
|
||
"explorationRate": 0.3,
|
||
"explorationDecay": 0.995,
|
||
"minExplorationRate": 0.01,
|
||
"improvementThreshold": 0.20,
|
||
"targetWindow": 100
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Step 3: First Learning Cycle
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
// Execute task (learning happens automatically in onPostTask hook)
|
||
const result = await agent.execute({
|
||
type: 'test-generation',
|
||
payload: {
|
||
sourceFile: 'src/user-service.ts',
|
||
framework: 'jest',
|
||
coverage: 95
|
||
}
|
||
});
|
||
|
||
// Learning outcome is stored in memory
|
||
console.log('Task completed with learning');
|
||
|
||
// Check improvement status
|
||
const status = await learningEngine.calculateImprovement();
|
||
console.log(`Improvement: ${status.improvementRate.toFixed(2)}%`);
|
||
console.log(`Confidence: ${(status.confidence * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Output:**
|
||
```
|
||
Task completed with learning
|
||
Improvement: 5.2%
|
||
Confidence: 65.0%
|
||
```
|
||

const tracker = new PerformanceTracker('test-gen-1', memory, {
|
||
targetImprovement: 0.20, // 20% improvement goal
|
||
snapshotWindow: 100, // Compare last 100 vs first 100
|
||
metricsToTrack: [
|
||
'coverage',
|
||
'executionTime',
|
||
'qualityScore',
|
||
'errorRate'
|
||
]
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### ImprovementLoop Options
|
||
|
||
```typescript

{ name: 'property-based', config: { parallelization: 0.8 } },
|
||
{ name: 'mutation-based', config: { parallelization: 0.6 } }
|
||
], 50);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Using the Learning System
|
||
|
||
### Automatic Learning (onPostTask Hook)
|
||
|
||
Learning happens automatically after every task execution through the `onPostTask` hook:
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
class TestGeneratorAgent extends BaseAgent {
|
||
protected async onPostTask(data: {
|
||
assignment: TaskAssignment;
|
||
result: any;
|
||
}): Promise<void> {
|
||
// Learning happens here automatically
|
||
if (this.learningEngine && this.learningEngine.isEnabled()) {
|
||
const outcome = await this.learningEngine.learnFromExecution(
|
||
data.assignment.task,
|
||
data.result
|
||
);
|
||
|
||
if (outcome.improved) {
|
||
this.logger.info(
|
||
`Performance improved: ${outcome.improvementRate.toFixed(2)}%`,
|
||
{ outcome }
|
||
);
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
// Store results in memory for other agents
|
||
await this.memoryStore.store(
|
||
`phase2/learning/${this.agentId}/last-result`,
|
||
data.result,
|
||
{ partition: 'learning' }
|
||
);
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**What Gets Learned:**
|
||
1. **Task Complexity** → What strategies work best for complex vs simple tasks
|
||
2. **Resource Utilization** → Optimal parallelization and resource allocation
|
||
3. **Failure Patterns** → What causes failures and how to avoid them
|
||
4. **Success Patterns** → What consistently leads to high-quality results
|
||
|
||
### Manual Learning
|
||
|
||
You can also trigger learning manually:
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
import { LearningEngine, SwarmMemoryManager } from 'agentic-qe';
|
||
|
||
const memory = new SwarmMemoryManager({ databasePath: './.aqe/memory.db' });
|
||
await memory.initialize();
|
||
|
||
const engine = new LearningEngine('test-gen-1', memory);
|
||
await engine.initialize();
|
||
|
||
// Execute task
|
||
const task = {
|
||
id: 'task-123',
|
||
type: 'test-generation',
|
||
requirements: {
|
||
capabilities: ['ast-analysis', 'pattern-matching'],
|
||
complexity: 0.7
|
||
},
|
||
timeout: 30000
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
const result = {
|
||
success: true,
|
||
strategy: 'property-based',
|
||
coverage: 0.92,
|
||
executionTime: 1450,
|
||
errors: [],
|
||
parallelization: 0.8,
|
||
retryPolicy: 'exponential'
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
// Learn from execution
|
||
const outcome = await engine.learnFromExecution(task, result);
|
||
|
||
console.log('Learning Outcome:');
|
||
console.log(` Improved: ${outcome.improved}`);
|
||
console.log(` Improvement Rate: ${outcome.improvementRate.toFixed(2)}%`);
|
||
console.log(` Confidence: ${(outcome.confidence * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
|
||
console.log(` Patterns Learned: ${outcome.patterns.length}`);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Monitoring Learning Progress
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
// Get current exploration rate
|
||
const explorationRate = engine.getExplorationRate();
|
||
console.log(`Exploration Rate: ${(explorationRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
|
||
|
||
// Get total experiences
|
||
const totalExperiences = engine.getTotalExperiences();
|
||
console.log(`Total Experiences: ${totalExperiences}`);
|
||
|
||
// Get learned patterns
|
||
const patterns = engine.getPatterns();
|
||
patterns.forEach(pattern => {
|
||
console.log(`Pattern: ${pattern.pattern}`);
|
||
console.log(` Confidence: ${(pattern.confidence * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
|
||
console.log(` Success Rate: ${(pattern.successRate * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
|
||
console.log(` Usage Count: ${pattern.usageCount}`);
|
||
});
|
||
|
||
// Get failure patterns
|
||
const failures = engine.getFailurePatterns();
|
||
failures.forEach(failure => {
|
||
console.log(`Failure Pattern: ${failure.pattern}`);
|
||
console.log(` Frequency: ${failure.frequency}`);
|
||
console.log(` Confidence: ${(failure.confidence * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
|
||
console.log(` Mitigation: ${failure.mitigation || 'None'}`);
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Interpreting Learning Metrics
|
||
|
||
**Improvement Rate:**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const improvement = await engine.calculateImprovement();
|
||
|
||
if (improvement.improvementRate >= 20) {
|
||
console.log('🎯 Target achieved! 20%+ improvement');
|
||
} else if (improvement.improvementRate > 0) {
|
||
console.log(`📈 Improving: ${improvement.improvementRate.toFixed(2)}%`);
|
||
} else {
|
||
console.log('📉 No improvement yet');
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Confidence Score:**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
if (improvement.confidence >= 0.95) {
|
||
console.log('✅ High confidence in results');
|
||
} else if (improvement.confidence >= 0.7) {
|
||
console.log('⚠️ Medium confidence - continue learning');
|
||
} else {
|
||
console.log('❌ Low confidence - need more samples');
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Learned Patterns:**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const patterns = engine.getPatterns();
|
||
const highConfidencePatterns = patterns.filter(p => p.confidence > 0.8);
|
||
|
||
console.log(`High Confidence Patterns: ${highConfidencePatterns.length}`);
|
||
highConfidencePatterns.forEach(p => {
|
||
console.log(` ${p.pattern}: ${(p.successRate * 100).toFixed(1)}% success`);
|
||
});
|
||
```

## Programmatic API
|
||
|
||
### Basic Usage
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
import { LearningEngine, SwarmMemoryManager } from 'agentic-qe';
|
||
|
||
// Initialize
|
||
const memory = new SwarmMemoryManager({ databasePath: './.aqe/memory.db' });
|
||
await memory.initialize();
|
||
|
||
const engine = new LearningEngine('agent-id', memory, {
|
||
enabled: true,
|
||
learningRate: 0.1,
|
||
discountFactor: 0.95,
|
||
explorationRate: 0.3
|
||
});
|
||
|
||
await engine.initialize();
|
||
|
||
// Learn from execution
|
||
const outcome = await engine.learnFromExecution(task, result);
|
||
|
||
// Get strategy recommendation
|
||
const recommendation = await engine.recommendStrategy({
|
||
taskComplexity: 0.7,
|
||
requiredCapabilities: ['ast-analysis', 'pattern-matching'],
|
||
contextFeatures: {},
|
||
previousAttempts: 0,
|
||
availableResources: 0.8,
|
||
timeConstraint: 30000
|
||
});
|
||
|
||
console.log(`Recommended Strategy: ${recommendation.strategy}`);
|
||
console.log(`Confidence: ${(recommendation.confidence * 100).toFixed(1)}%`);
|
||
console.log(`Expected Improvement: ${recommendation.expectedImprovement.toFixed(1)}%`);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Advanced Usage
|
||
|
||
**Custom Reward Function:**
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
class CustomLearningEngine extends LearningEngine {
|
||
protected calculateReward(result: any, feedback?: LearningFeedback): number {
|
||
let reward = super.calculateReward(result, feedback);
|
||
|
||
// Add custom rewards
|
||
if (result.testsGenerated > 100) {
|
||
reward += 0.5; // Bonus for high productivity
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
if (result.qualityScore > 0.95) {
|
||
reward += 0.3; // Bonus for high quality
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
if (result.executionTime < 1000) {
|
||
reward += 0.2; // Bonus for speed
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
return reward;
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Strategy Exploration:**
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
// Force exploration (try new strategies)
|
||
const recommendation = await engine.recommendStrategy(state);
|
||
|
||
if (Math.random() < engine.getExplorationRate()) {
|
||
// Explore: try a random strategy
|
||
const randomStrategy = ['property-based', 'mutation-based', 'example-based'][
|
||
Math.floor(Math.random() * 3)
|
||
];
|
||
console.log(`Exploring: ${randomStrategy}`);
|
||
return randomStrategy;
|
||
} else {
|
||
// Exploit: use best known strategy
|
||
console.log(`Exploiting: ${recommendation.strategy}`);
|
||
return recommendation.strategy;
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Learning with User Feedback:**
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const feedback: LearningFeedback = {
|
||
rating: 0.9, // User rating (0-1)
|
||
issues: [], // Issues found
|
||
suggestions: [
|
||
'More edge cases needed',
|
||
'Better error handling'
|
||
],
|
||
timestamp: new Date()
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
const outcome = await engine.learnFromExecution(task, result, feedback);
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
---
|
||
|
||
## Best Practices
|
||
|
||
### 1. When to Enable Learning
|
||
|
||
**✅ Enable Learning When:**
|
||
- Agent will execute 100+ tasks
|
||
- Task types are consistent
|
||
- You want automatic optimization
|
||
- Performance improvement is measurable
|
||
|
||
**❌ Don't Enable Learning When:**
|
||
- Agent executes < 10 tasks
|
||
- Task types vary wildly
|
||
- Manual strategy selection is critical
|
||
- Testing/debugging in progress
|
||
|
||
### 2. Balancing Exploration vs Exploitation
|
||
|
||
**Early Stage (0-50 executions):**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const engine = new LearningEngine('agent-id', memory, {
|
||
explorationRate: 0.4, // High exploration
|
||
explorationDecay: 0.99 // Slow decay
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Mid Stage (50-200 executions):**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const engine = new LearningEngine('agent-id', memory, {
|
||
explorationRate: 0.2, // Moderate exploration
|
||
explorationDecay: 0.995 // Medium decay
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Mature Stage (200+ executions):**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const engine = new LearningEngine('agent-id', memory, {
|
||
explorationRate: 0.05, // Low exploration
|
||
explorationDecay: 0.999 // Slow decay
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 3. Handling Negative Feedback
|
||
|
||
```typescript
|
||
// Learn from failures
|
||
if (!result.success) {
|
||
const feedback: LearningFeedback = {
|
||
rating: 0.0,
|
||
issues: result.errors.map(e => e.message),
|
||
suggestions: ['Increase timeout', 'Add retry logic'],
|
||
timestamp: new Date()
|
||
};
|
||
|
||
await engine.learnFromExecution(task, result, feedback);
|
||
}
|
||
|
||
// Review failure patterns
|
||
const failures = engine.getFailurePatterns();
|
||
const criticalFailures = failures.filter(f => f.frequency > 10);
|
||
|
||
criticalFailures.forEach(failure => {
|
||
console.log(`⚠️ Critical Failure Pattern: ${failure.pattern}`);
|
||
console.log(` Frequency: ${failure.frequency}`);
|
||
console.log(` Mitigation: ${failure.mitigation || 'Manual review needed'}`);
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### 4. Exporting Learning Data for Analysis
|
||
|
||
```bash
|
||
# Export learning state
|
||
aqe learn export --agent test-generator --output learning-state.json
|
||
|
||
# Analyze with Python/R
|
||
python analyze_learning.py learning-state.json
|
||
|
||
# Re-import optimized state
|
||
aqe learn import --agent test-generator --input optimized-state.json
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
**Python Analysis Example:**
|
||
```python
|
||
import json
|
||
import pandas as pd
|
||
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
|
||
|
||
# Load learning state
|
||
with open('learning-state.json') as f:
|
||
state = json.load(f)
|
||
|
||
# Convert experiences to DataFrame
|
||
df = pd.DataFrame(state['experiences'])
|
||
|
||
# Plot reward trend
|
||
df['reward'].rolling(20).mean().plot(title='Average Reward (20-task window)')
|
||
plt.xlabel('Task Number')
|
||
plt.ylabel('Average Reward')
|
||
plt.savefig('reward-trend.png')
|
||
|
||
# Analyze best strategies
|
||
strategy_performance = df.groupby('action.strategy').agg({
|
||
'reward': ['mean', 'std', 'count']
|
||
})
|
||
print(strategy_performance)
|
||
```
|
||

||
## Troubleshooting
|
||
|
||
### Issue: Learning Not Improving Performance
|
||
|
||
**Symptoms:**
|
||
- Improvement rate stays at 0% after 50+ executions
|
||
- Confidence remains low (<0.5)
|
||
- All strategies have similar Q-values
|
||
|
||
**Solutions:**
|
||
|
||
1. **Check Reward Signal:**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
// Add logging to see rewards
|
||
class DebuggingLearningEngine extends LearningEngine {
|
||
protected calculateReward(result: any, feedback?: LearningFeedback): number {
|
||
const reward = super.calculateReward(result, feedback);
|
||
console.log('Reward Breakdown:');
|
||
console.log(` Success: ${result.success ? 1 : -1}`);
|
||
console.log(` Coverage: ${result.coverage}`);
|
||
console.log(` Time: ${result.executionTime}ms`);
|
||
console.log(` Total Reward: ${reward}`);
|
||
return reward;
|
||
}
|
||
}
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. **Increase Learning Rate:**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const engine = new LearningEngine('agent-id', memory, {
|
||
learningRate: 0.2, // Up from 0.1
|
||
explorationRate: 0.5 // Up from 0.3
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. **Reset and Retrain:**
|
||
```bash
|
||
aqe learn reset --agent test-generator --confirm
|
||
aqe learn enable --agent test-generator --learning-rate 0.2
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Issue: High Exploration Rate Not Decreasing
|
||
|
||
**Symptoms:**
|
||
- Exploration rate stuck at initial value
|
||
- Agent keeps trying random strategies
|
||
- Q-table not converging
|
||
|
||
**Solutions:**
|
||
|
||
1. **Check Decay Configuration:**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const engine = new LearningEngine('agent-id', memory, {
|
||
explorationDecay: 0.995, // Should be < 1.0
|
||
minExplorationRate: 0.01 // Should be small
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. **Force Decay:**
|
||
```bash
|
||
aqe learn config --agent test-generator --exploration-decay 0.99
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### Issue: Memory Exceeds Limit
|
||
|
||
**Symptoms:**
|
||
- Warning: "Learning state exceeds max size"
|
||
- Performance degradation
|
||
- Memory store errors
|
||
|
||
**Solutions:**
|
||
|
||
1. **Increase Memory Limit:**
|
||
```typescript
|
||
const engine = new LearningEngine('agent-id', memory, {
|
||
maxMemorySize: 200 * 1024 * 1024 // 200MB (up from 100MB)
|
||
});
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
2. **Prune Old Experiences:**
|
||
```bash
|
||
aqe learn prune --agent test-generator --keep-last 500
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
3. **Export and Reset:**
|
||
```bash
|
||
aqe learn export --agent test-generator --output backup.json
|
||
aqe learn reset --agent test-generator --confirm
|
||
```
