Abstract

GUI agents must reason about how actions transform interface states, but end-to-end success rates entangle this ability with perception, grounding, planning, and recovery. We introduce EvoGUI, a diagnostic framework that converts normalized GUI trajectories into three complementary visual question answering probes: temporal ordering, inverse action/value prediction, and contrastive one-step successor discrimination. Their labels are derived from trajectory order and logged actions, requiring no additional task-label annotation after trajectory normalization. We instantiate EvoGUI-Bench from Mind2Web and WebLINX, yielding 3,000 instances across 120 domains, and evaluate 28 vision-language model configurations zero-shot. The strongest model reaches only 60.4 EvoGain, while model scale and GUI specialization do not reliably predict performance. These results establish EvoGUI-Bench as a scalable diagnostic complement to end-to-end GUI-agent evaluation while exposing substantial headroom in state-transition understanding. The source code is publicly available at this https URL.
