Hi everyone! I noticed a lot of open issues, particularly in relation to new enhancements.

I'd like to help improve the test coverage using CodeBeaver, an AI agent that I built (it's free for open source!). To demonstrate what's possible, I've created a PR:
CodeBeaverAI#1
that adds comprehensive tests to the last Pull Request that was opened here: refactor: simplify File.disabledIntervals, add tests.

What the PR demonstrates:

  • Increases coverage by:
    • lint/file_test.go: New coverage: 61.04% (Improvement: +16.88%)
    • rule/error_strings_test.go: New coverage: 92.31% (Improvement: +92.31%)
  • Adds 2 new test files: lint/file_test.go and rule/error_strings_test.go.
  • All tests are passing: 289/289 tests executed with no bugs detected in the changes.

On top of that: If you check the PR, you will see that CodeBeaver does not only go for coverage - it also adds all the edge cases it can think of (we make it iterate 3 times on that alone).

How it works:

CodeBeaver analyzes your code changes in PRs:

  • Automatically generates and updates tests.
  • Opens PRs with new/updated tests.
  • Helps catch bugs before they reach production.

Next steps

If this interests the maintainer team, I'm happy to:

  • Walk through how the tests were generated.
  • Help set up automated test generation for future PRs (takes ~5 minutes).
  • Focus on specific areas you'd like to improve testing for.

Let me know what you think! Happy to adapt this approach based on the project's needs.

Hi @erlapso

Thanks for your offer.

I'm unable to see the PR you talked about, nor the repository it might have been used.

Could you tell us more?
