AI Writes Perfect Tests? Codebase X-ray Revealed
AI Summary
In this video titled “AI Writes Perfect Tests? Codebase X-ray Revealed”, the presenter discusses the challenges of AI code generation, emphasizing the importance of creating perfect tests. The video introduces the “Codebase X-ray” prompt that allows the AI model, Gemini, to analyze an entire codebase and convert it into a structured JSON format. This structure serves as the foundation for a conceptual “Test Prioritization Engine” that identifies areas for testing based on complexity, integration points, and data flow paths. The presenter shares insights from their experiences and research, aiming to simplify the process of generating automated tests and debugging large codebases. The video is part of a broader discussion on improving AI reliability in software development.
