  • Topic: Code Quality and LLMs (Large Language Models) at MongoDB.
  • Concern: Code quality generated by LLMs, especially in tests.
  • Solution: Developed a chain of repair for code generated by LLMs:
    • Custom evaluation metric established over time.
    • Iterative process to improve generated code until it meets a pre-defined score.
    • Automated repairs suggested by the LLM until quality criteria are met.
    • Human intervention only occurs if the automated process fails to achieve the required quality score.
  • Benefits: Ensures that code passes quality checks before testing, reducing chances of failure in tests due to poor quality.

This process enhances the reliability of automatically generated code.
