Codium AI is a software code quality startup set to take the world of code-verifying AI tools by storm with the beta test launch of its latest generative AI tool, TestGPT. TestGPT works by analyzing new code, docstrings, and comments as a developer is writing. It not only offers up test suite suggestions that assist developers in speeding up coding and bug scans, but it also verifies the correctness of code versus the desired specification with high code integrity and accuracy. TestGPT builds upon OpenAI’s ChatGPT, which started out focused on natural language where it demonstrated impressive results creating comment-to-code mappings. Codium AI’s TestGPT, however, applies its chatbot-like capabilities to writing appropriate tests for the code as it is written, creating a more natural and reliable code-review experience.
The head of Codium AI is Manny Anawaty, a tech industry veteran, who has a vast experience in software quality and certification. Manny is the brains behind the upcoming TestGPT, which can be initially used with Python and JavaScript. His passion for developing more efficient software quality and code verification standards, combined with Codium AI’s reliable AI-based models, have paved the way in ushering in a new era of verifying code integrity. TestGPT is set to be an incredibly useful tool for developers as it provides an easy-to-use system that can ensure code is functioning in line with the developers’ desires.
