Spring AI provides tools for evaluating Large Language Models (LLMs) like Ollama and TestContainers, ensuring accuracy and reliability in AI applications.
Ollama is a platform for running LLMs locally, offering speed, offline capabilities, and simplified model deployment without cloud dependencies.
TestContainers is an open-source library for creating disposable instances of services like databases in Docker containers, enhancing test reliability and setup.
Combining Ollama with TestContainers enables developers to create controlled environments for evaluating AI models efficiently.
The code example demonstrates setting up a Spring Boot application integrating Ollama in a TestContainer and evaluating LLM responses using Spring AI evaluators.
Spring dependencies like spring-boot-starter-web and testcontainers are utilized to create and run Ollama instances seamlessly.
The LlmService communicates with the AI model through OpenAiClient, while evaluators like RelevanceEvaluator and FactCheckingEvaluator assess response quality.
The LlmController generates LLM responses, evaluates their relevance and accuracy, and returns structured JSON results, enhancing AI response quality.
Proper application setup is crucial, including defining properties like server port and AI model configurations in application.properties.
Unit testing using LlmEvaluatorTest class helps validate the functionality of the LlmController, ensuring AI-generated responses meet expected criteria.
