via “automated unit test generation”

I built this because Cursor, Claude Code and other agentic AI tools kept giving me tests that looked fine but failed when I ran them. Or worse - I'd ask the agent to run them and it would start looping: fix tests, those fail, then it starts "fixing" my code so tests pass, or just dele

Unique: Utilizes a hybrid approach combining static analysis and AI to generate contextually relevant tests, unlike traditional tools that rely solely on predefined templates.

vs others: More context-aware than Jest's snapshot testing due to its understanding of code structure and behavior.
