gapix
Your tests pass. But are they actually good?
Most coverage tools tell you what is tested. gapix tells you how well.

The Problem
You have 80%+ code coverage. CI is green. But bugs still make it to production.
Why? Because tests like this technically "cover" your code:
// ❌ This passes but catches nothing
test('should process user', async () => {
const result = await processUser(mockData);
expect(result).toBeTruthy();
});
// ❌ E2E test that clicks through a flow but never checks outcomes
test('signup flow', async ({ page }) => {
await page.goto('/signup');
await page.fill('#email', '[email protected]');
await page.click('button[type="submit"]');
await page.waitForURL('/dashboard');
// ...no assertions on what actually happened
});Coverage tools can't catch this. gapix can.
🚀 Getting Started
# Install globally (recommended)
npm install -g @artshllaku/gapix
# Run analysis with interactive HTML report
gapix analyze ./src -o htmlOr run without installing:
npx --package=@artshllaku/gapix gapix analyze ./src -o htmlThat's it — an interactive report opens in your browser.
✨ Features
Works with any testing framework
gapix analyzes the AST of your test files — it works with any framework that uses standard test patterns:
| Framework | Status | Matchers |
|-----------|--------|----------|
| Jest | ✅ Full | All 50+ matchers recognized |
| Vitest | ✅ Full | Same API as Jest |
| Playwright | ✅ Full | toBeVisible, toHaveURL, toHaveText, toHaveScreenshot, etc. |
| Testing Library | ✅ Full | toBeInTheDocument, toHaveTextContent, toHaveAttribute, etc. |
| Cypress | ✅ Partial | expect() chains detected |
| Mocha + Chai | ✅ Partial | describe/it + expect() style |

Interactive HTML ReportInteractive HTML report
Dark-themed, self-contained HTML dashboard — auto-opens in your browser:
- Summary dashboard — files analyzed, coverage %, tested/untested counts
- Quality grades — each test file scored 0-100 with letter grades
- File-level breakdown — colored progress bars, click to expand details
- Function-level detail — every function/method with tested/untested status
- AI suggestions — specific, runnable test code you can copy-paste
🔍 Test Quality Analysis
This is what makes gapix different. Instead of counting lines, it evaluates what your tests actually check:
| Finding | Severity | What it means |
|---------|----------|---------------|
| No assertions | 🔴 High | Test runs code but never calls expect() |
| Weak matchers | 🟡 Medium | toBeTruthy() / toBeDefined() instead of checking real values |
| Single assertion | 🟡 Medium | Only one check in a test — probably not enough |
| Missing edge cases | 🟡 Medium | No tests for null, empty, or error inputs |
| Missing error handling | 🔴 High | Source has try/catch but no test triggers it |
| Wrong assertion target | 🟡 Medium | Asserting on a side effect, not the core behavior |
Quality scoring
| Score | Grade | What it means | |-------|-------|---------------| | 85–100 | Excellent | Strong, specific assertions that catch real bugs | | 65–84 | Good | Solid tests, minor improvements possible | | 40–64 | Fair | Tests exist but have gaps — false confidence risk | | 0–39 | Poor | Tests provide little value — likely false coverage |
🤖 AI Providers
gapix works without AI using rule-based AST analysis. Add an AI provider for deeper, context-aware insights:
# OpenAI (recommended for best results)
gapix set-provider openai
gapix set-key YOUR_OPENAI_API_KEY
# Ollama (free, runs locally)
ollama pull llama3
gapix set-provider ollama
# Check your config
gapix show-config| Mode | What you get | |------|-------------| | Without AI | Structural analysis — no assertions, weak matchers, single checks | | With AI | Deep analysis — missing edge cases, wrong targets, context-specific suggestions with runnable code |
