Code coverage is a code quality metric leveraging unit tests. Coming up with test cases with every combination of parameters requires developer’s time, which is already scarce. Developers’ focus is (mis)directed at just meeting the coverage threshold. In doing so, quality of code may be compromised and resulting code may still result in unexpected outcomes.
In this blog, we will walk you through a Java application and demonstrate how to look beyond code coverage by leveraging Amazon CodeWhisperer, an AI coding companion, for generating a combination of test cases, including boundary conditions which are often overlooked due to time and resource constraints. Taking this approach, you can improve code quality as well as improve your productivity.
