What does this PR do?

This pull request updates the documentation for the Tool Description Evaluator to clarify and expand instructions for testing tool descriptions, server selection, and input file usage. The changes make it easier to understand how to run tests filtered by service area, use custom files and testing individual tool descriptions. It also adds support for selecting different MCP servers (Azure and Fabric) for tool/prompts dynamic loading and for providing a path to a specific executable.

Documentation improvements:

  • Added detailed instructions for testing tool descriptions against both Azure and Fabric MCP servers, including how to specify the server or use a custom server executable path. [1] [2]
  • Renamed the "Validate mode to the "Test Single Tool" and updated its documentation. [1] [2]
  • Expanded explanations for server selection, including precedence rules for --server vs --server-exe and automatic executable discovery. [1] [2]
  • Clarified how to filter tests by service area and combine area filtering with server selection. [1] [2]
  • Updated references and examples for test prompt files to cover both Azure and Fabric servers, and reorganized usage sections for better readability. [1] [2] [3] [4]

Pull Request Overview

This PR refactors the ToolDescriptionEvaluator to add support for testing multiple MCP servers (Azure and Fabric) and introduces a new single-tool testing mode. Key changes include:

  • Removed the "azmcp_" prefix from all tool names across test prompts and configuration files
  • Added server selection options (--server and --server-exe) to support testing Azure and Fabric MCP servers
  • Introduced --test-single-tool mode for testing individual tool descriptions without modifying the codebase
  • Improved error handling with clearer exception messages and better CI mode handling
  • Enhanced documentation with detailed usage examples for new features
