Explanation of typical application scenarios of Potpie AI
Key application scenarios for the tool in the full software development cycle include:
- Legacy Code Refactoring: When taking over an old codebase, use the Codebase Q&A Agent to quickly understand the system architecture. For example, enter "show the call links of user authentication module" to get a visual dependency graph.
- Continuous Integration Optimization: Integrate "Code Changes Agent" in the CI process to automatically analyze the impact of each submission. For example, after a certain modification of the database model, the system will prompt the need to synchronize the updated API documentation.
- quality assurance (QA): Use Unit Test Agent to generate test coverage reports for key modules and automatically add missing boundary test cases (e.g. MAX_INT tests for numeric parameters).
- Teamwork: New members learn interactively through the Onboarding Agent, asking questions such as "What is the exception handling specification for this project?" and receiving answers based on actual code samples.
- Technical debt management: The system can periodically scan the codebase to identify code fragments that need to be refactored if they meet predefined criteria (e.g., cyclomatic complexity > 10).
In the actual application of an e-commerce system, the debugging time is reduced by 40% on average after using Potpie, and the code coverage of new function testing is improved from 65% to 92%.
