The new **User Simulation** feature in the Agent Development Kit (ADK) replaces rigid, brittle manual test scripts with dynamic, LLM-powered conversation generation. Developers define a high-level `conversation_plan`, and the simulator handles the multi-turn interaction to achieve the goal. This dramatically reduces test creation time, builds more resilient tests, and creates a reliable regression suite for AI agents.
