Microsoft has released code-testing-generator, an open-source agent for generating unit tests in any programming language, according to the company.
Released July 31, the code-testing-generator agent learns from the user’s repository, then plans, writes, and checks the tests to prove that they work. Currently the agent writes unit tests only. Integration tests, end-to-end tests, browser tests, and performance tests are outside its current scope, Microsoft said.
The agent coordinates test generation using the “research-plan-implement” (RPI) pipeline. First the agent searches the repository for the code that needs tests, detecting the language and test framework and looking for existing tests to guide its work, and finding the correct commands for building and running the tests.
