arXiv:2506.01952v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Powered by large language models (LLMs), web browsing agents operate graphical user interfaces in a human-like manner, offering a transparent and general framework for automating web-based tasks. As these agents rapidly improve and achieve strong performance on existing benchmarks such as WebArena, a key question arises: $\textit{Can current benchmarks still accurately evaluate the capabilities of increasingly powerful agents, especially for more tedious and cognitively demanding tasks?}$ In this paper, we present $\textbf{WebChoreArena}$, a substantial extension of WebArena designed to push beyond general browsing scenarios. WebChoreArena introduces 532 carefully curated tasks developed over 300+ hours, explicitly targeting more labor-intensive and complex web chores. It systematically expands the evaluation space along three critical dimensions: (i) $\textbf{Massive Memory}$, requiring agents to accurately retain and retrieve large amounts of information from observations; (ii) $\textbf{Calculation}$, demanding precise mathematical reasoning over collected information; and (iii) $\textbf{Long-Term Memory}$, necessitating consistent information tracking across multiple webpages. Built directly on top of the four reproducible WebArena environments, WebChoreArena ensures strict compatibility and enables fair, controlled comparisons with prior work. Our experimental results demonstrate that as LLMs evolve, significant performance improvements are observed on WebChoreArena. These findings suggest that WebChoreArena is …
