The first open-source implementation of the paper that will change automatic test generation is now available!
In February, Meta published a paper introducing a tool to automatically increase test coverage, guaranteeing improvements over an existing code base.
This is a big deal, but Meta didn't release the code.
Fortunately, we now have Cover-Agent, an open-source tool you can install that implements Meta's paper to generate unit tests automatically:

I recorded a quick video showing Cover-Agent in action. There are two things I want to mention:
1. Automatically generating unit tests is not new, but doing it right is difficult. If you ask ChatGPT to do it, you'll get duplicate, non-working, and meaningless tests that don't improve your code. Meta's solution only generates unique tests that run and increase code coverage.
2. People who write tests before writing the code (TDD) will find this less helpful. That's okay. Not everyone does TDD, but we all need to improve test coverage.
There are many good and bad applications of AI, but this is one I'm looking forward to make part of my life.
I research women and far-right movements in the U.S. and Europe, including why women are increasingly likely to join and how their role has changed. This speech was a masterclass. 1/

'Channel 1' just revealed their new AI news anchors.
All avatars and voice in this video is AI-generated.
With AI video tech improving week over week- the line between what's real and AI-generated is only going to continue to blur.
OpenAI just introduced Function Calling.
This is a killer feature! It's the most consequential update to their API since they released it.
Here is an example to show you how powerful this is:
X : How will GPT-4 affect organisational structure?
Me : The changes in organisations were already occuring - https://t.co/BAde7zrmJh ... think of these new tools as enablers of some of these changes i.e. distributed or "leaderless" leadership where everyone is in charge.
