byron 0.8a1.dev36

Multi-purpose extensible self-adaptive optimizer and fuzzer

Byron is an evolutionary tool: given a problem, it first generates a set of random solutions, then iteratively improves them using the results of their evaluations together with structural information. It may be used as a coverage-driven fuzzer and a general-purpose optimizer.

⚠️ Byron is currently in alpha and under active development
