It just seems to me that your AP making a turn at a waypoint should never be a surprise. If it is, you aren't keeping an adequate watch.
And if something other than the planned turn is required, you should have already taken control via Auto mode or manual steering before the pilot would have made the turn on it's own. Otherwise you aren't keeping an adequate watch.
Otherwise, let the pilot make the turn, and watch to see how good a job it does of carrying out the turn, and exiting on track, and on heading. If it misses, you have some tuning to do.
