Abstract

Training and/or utilization of machine learning model(s) (e.g., neural network model(s)) in automatically generating test case(s) for source code. Techniques disclosed herein can be utilized in generating test case(s) for unit test testing (or other white-box testing) and/or for functional testing (or other black-box testing). In some implementations, the machine learning model(s) can be trained on source code, unit test pairs. In some additional or alternative implementations, reinforcement learning techniques can be utilized to check for correctness of base source code, target source code pairs (e.g., by matching program execution of different branches).
