Abstract

In software development processes, accuracy and reliability are directly associated with the effective creation of unit tests. In this context, the production of unit tests and software testing processes have become a significant focal point for developers and software engineers. This study examines the developments in automated unit test generation processes, focusing on the integration of the developed Opcode parsing method with Java Agent technology, and evaluates the potential impacts of this integration in the field of software testing. By analyzing opcodes at the Java bytecode level and leveraging the dynamic code manipulation capabilities of Java Agents, the aim is to generate automated test scenarios. This method aims to enhance test coverage in software development processes, improve code quality, and ensure software accuracy. Additionally, the study assesses the practical applicability of this technical integration by supporting it with experimental data, highlighting the impact of merging Java Agent technology with opcode analysis in the process of automated unit test generation. The results underscore the potential of Java Agents combined with opcode analysis in automating the test generation process, offering a significant contribution to the field of software engineering.
