The issue-resolving task, where a model generates patches to fix real-world bugs, has emerged as a key benchmark for evaluating the capabilities of large language models (LLMs). While SWE-bench has become the dominant benchmark in this domain, it suffers from several limitations: it has not been updated since its release, is restricted to only 12 repositories, and relies heavily on manual effort for constructing test instances and setting up executable environments, significantly limiting its scalability. We present SWE-bench-Live, a live-updatable benchmark designed to address these limitations. SWE-bench-Live currently includes 1,890 tasks derived from real GitHub issues created since 2024, spanning 223 repositories. Each task is accompanied by a dedicated Docker image to ensure reproducible execution. Additionally, we introduce an automated curation pipeline that streamlines the entire process from instance creation to environment setup, removing manual bottlenecks and enabling scalability and continuous updates. We evaluate a range of state-of-the-art models and agent frameworks on SWE-bench-Live, offering detailed empirical insights into their real-world bug-fixing capabilities. By providing a fresh, diverse, and executable benchmark grounded in live repository activity, SWE-bench-Live supports reliable, large-scale assessment of code LLMs and code agents in realistic development settings.

Code review is an essential part to software development lifecycle since it aims at guaranteeing the quality of codes. Modern code review activities necessitate developers viewing, understanding and even running the programs to assess logic, functionality, latency, style and other factors. It turns out that developers have to spend far too much time reviewing the code of their peers. Accordingly, it is in significant demand to automate the code review process. In this research, we focus on utilizing pre-training techniques for the tasks in the code review scenario. We collect a large-scale dataset of real-world code changes and code reviews from open-source projects in nine of the most popular programming languages. To better understand code diffs and reviews, we propose CodeReviewer, a pre-trained model that utilizes four pre-training tasks tailored specifically for the code review scenario. To evaluate our model, we focus on three key tasks related to code review activities, including code change quality estimation, review comment generation and code refinement. Furthermore, we establish a high-quality benchmark dataset based on our collected data for these three tasks and conduct comprehensive experiments on it. The experimental results demonstrate that our model outperforms the previous state-of-the-art pre-training approaches in all tasks. Further analysis show that our proposed pre-training tasks and the multilingual pre-training dataset benefit the model on the understanding of code changes and reviews.

In software development through integrated development environments (IDEs), code completion is one of the most widely used features. Nevertheless, majority of integrated development environments only support completion of methods and APIs, or arguments.

In this paper, we propose a novel end-to-end approach for AI-assisted code completion called Pythia. It generates ranked lists of method and API recommendations which can be used by software developers at edit time. The system is currently deployed as part of Intellicode extension in Visual Studio Code IDE. Pythia exploits state-of-the-art large-scale deep learning models trained on code contexts extracted from abstract syntax trees. It is designed to work at a high throughput predicting the best matching code completions on the order of 100 ms.
