What problem does it solve?

Characterization tests capture the current behavior of Swift code to provide a safety net before refactoring, ensuring public interfaces remain stable as implementations evolve.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates Swift characterization tests that lock current behavior for legacy and unfamiliar codebases.
  • Produces test scaffolding named after the target type, enabling fast baseline checks during refactors.
  • Supports inline stubs for dependencies and focuses on observable behavior of public APIs.
