Testcase Generation

Intro

In the software development process, the generation of test cases is a crucial step. Test cases are specific testing methods used to verify software functionality, performance, and security, and are a key means to ensure software quality.

CodeSouler can automatically generate comprehensive test suites tailored to your codebase. These test cases cover the main paths and boundary situations of the code, ensuring that the code remains stable and reliable during modification and extension.

💡Method

Taking VScode for instance, CodeSouler supports the following methods for generating test cases:

1.Use "/test" Opeartion

Select the target Code Block, use shortcut Ctrl + L , and CodeSouler will pop up the session window. And reference the selected Code Block to the session box, and then enter the /test command. CodeSouler can write high-quality test cases for the selected code library.

2.Write prompt in question and answer box.

After selecting the specified Code Block, write the prompt "Please write test cases for this code", CodeSouler can also generate unit test cases for code.

3.Use "Generate test" option

CodeSouler also supports the function of quickly executing test case generation in the code interface. The "Generate test" option is located before each code function/class name. Clicking "Generate test", CodeSouler can provide a set of configuration items based on the test framework, test path, test cases, and the number of generated tests. Users can quickly generate test cases for the function based on the configuration items.
