utfuzz

utfuzz is a Python fuzzing engine, generating ready-to-use unit tests for both error and regression suites.

Prerequisites

utfuzz supports Python 3.8–3.11.

utfuzz depends on Java 17 and newer. If you do not have Java installed, utfuzz will install it, or your can do it manually using these instructions:

• Linux

• Windows

• macOS

Installation

• Install from archive:

  1. Download utfuzz.tar.gz
  2. Run:

  python -m pip install utfuzz.tar.gz
  

• Install from GitLab repository:

  python -m pip install git+https://gitlab.com/tamarinvs19/utfuzz
  

• Install from source code:

  git clone https://gitlab.com/tamarinvs19/utfuzz
  cd utfuzz
  python -m pip install ./
  

Usage

You can run utfuzz in one of three modes:

• dialogue mode (default)
• config file mode
• CLI arguments mode

Upon each test generation, settings are saved to the utfuzz_config.json file.

Generate tests in a dialogue mode

By default, utfuzz runs in a dialogue mode. You can use prompts and configure test generation, or stick to default options:

python -m utfuzz

or

utfuzz

The resulting tests appear in the autogenerated utfuzz_tests folder by default.

Generate tests using CLI options

Turn off the dialogue mode with –-skip-dialog and specify the necessary options, for example:

python -m utfuzz –-skip-dialog -o /mnt/c/Users/username/uftests

Generate tests using a configuration file

Edit the utfuzz_config.json file and enable the --use-config-file option:

python -m utfuzz --use-config-file

Run tests

Run the generated tests as the usual unittest ones.

Options

usage: utfuzz [-h] [--skip-dialog] [--use-config-file] [--generate-only-error-suite] 
              [-j JAVA] [-t TIMEOUT] [-p PROJECT_DIR] [-o OUTPUT_DIR] [--sys-paths [SYS_PATHS ...]]
              [--analyze-targets [ANALYZE_TARGETS ...]] [--requirements-file REQUIREMENTS_FILE] [--debug]

options:
  -h, --help            show this help message and exit
  --skip-dialog         do not ask for options interactively
  --use-config-file     use config file from current directory
  --generate-only-error-suite
                        generate only error suite
  -j JAVA, --java JAVA  path to Java executable file or JAVA_HOME
  -t TIMEOUT, --timeout TIMEOUT
                        timeout in seconds for generating tests per class or group of top-level functions from one file
  -p PROJECT_DIR, --project-dir PROJECT_DIR
                        root directory with code under test (used for imports and dependency resolving)
  -o OUTPUT_DIR, --output-dir OUTPUT_DIR
                        directory for generated tests
  --sys-paths [SYS_PATHS ...]
                        additional path to find imports (will be added to `sys.path`; default = project directory)
  --analyze-targets [ANALYZE_TARGETS ...]
                        list of files or directories to test; empty value field means <<test all>>
  --requirements-file REQUIREMENTS_FILE
                        path to requirements.txt
  --debug               use debug mode

utfuzz has the UnitTestBot fuzzing engine inside. To change the version of the UnitTestBot source, replace it with the necessary utfuzz/utbot-cli-python.jar file (do not change the file name). Upon replacing, remember to reinstall this module.
