ChatUniTest IntelliJ IDEA plugin

Many people have tried using ChatGPT to help them with various programming tasks and have achieved good results. However, there are some issues with using ChatGPT directly. Firstly, the generated code often fails to execute correctly, leading to the famous saying "five minutes to code, two hours to debug". Secondly, it is inconvenient to integrate with existing projects as it requires manual interaction with ChatGPT and switching between different platforms. To address these problems, we have proposed the "Generate-Validate-Repair" framework and implemented a prototype. Additionally, to make it easier for everyone to use, we have developed an IntelliJ IDEA plugin that can be seamlessly integrated into existing development workflows.

The plugin is compatible with IntelliJ IDEA 2022.1-2023.1 and can be built from sources.
