Beyond scratch coding, exploiting large-scale code repositories (e.g., GitHub) for practical tasks is vital in real-world software development, yet current benchmarks rarely evaluate code agents in such authentic, workflow-driven scenarios.…

Code agents resolve 65-70% of SWE-bench Verified issues, but Pass@1 cannot tell us why the rest fail, and, as we show, capable-model failures are systematically misdiagnosed without trajectory data. We introduce TRAJEVAL, a training-free…

Modern coding scaffolds turn LLMs into capable software agents, but their ability to follow scaffold-specified instructions remains under-examined, especially when constraints are heterogeneous and persist across interactions. To fill this…

Software testing is a crucial phase in the software life cycle, helping identify potential risks and reduce maintenance costs. With the advancement of Large Language Models (LLMs), researchers have proposed an increasing number of LLM-based…
