Symflower’s technology

Symflower relies on symbolic execution to generate high-coverage JUnit tests for your Java, Spring, or Spring Boot applications.

Our IDE plugin symbolically executes your code to identify the input values that trigger the execution of all possible paths in your code resulting in high-coverage tests for your source code.

About symbolic execution

Meaningful unit tests & targeted values

Symflower’s test suites contain essential tests that cover all possible unique paths of your code. Test candidates are computed instead of being randomly chosen, resulting in mathematical precision and the highest test coverage possible.

Efficient & convenient testing

Unit tests generated by Symflower are easy to read and understand. Generated test templates follow mainstream conventions, test inputs are optimized for reading, and mocks are used automatically for both Java and Spring Boot applications.

Complex data types

Not restricted to primitive data types and simple source code. Symflower can handle and analyze concepts such as complex data types, interfaces and object orientation.

Slim unit test suites

No redundant test cases. Each generated test case adds value by executing a new behavior of a function.
