Most CodeGen tools failed on a 1K LOC Java class—bad docs, wrong bug fixes, and broken tests. Zencoder outperformed them all, generating accurate unit tests even for complex code.

Seriously impressed by Zencoder. Spent 2 hours banging my head against the wall, trying to refactor something with Cursor, and Zencoder did it in 10 mins just now!

Zencoder is like having an Al pair programmer-it anticipates my needs, reduces repetitive tasks, and lets me focus on solving complex problems. A must-have for IntelliJ developers.
