Running an experiment to see how well it handles documentation of code, meaning devs no longer have to split their time

Co-Pilot! Works well when you have good developers to drive better efficiency. Not to be used to reduce the number of developers or make better use of average developers!

Head of Technical Delivery Services in Travel and Hospitality2 years ago

We are currently exploring ways to help developers or testers by optimising software development lifecycle workflows using genAI tools. Some of the areas of exploration are:
1. Automatic documentation generation 
2. Automated functional tests generation, execution and validation. 
3. Automated filing of tickets in Jira and maintaining its lifecycle to its closure. 
4. Try to generate a boilerplates for standard frontend, backend, iac development 
5.  Automatically break a task into sub-tasks and create high level project plan in Jira etc.

I am curious if your organization has used code generators in any real way. Not low-code tools, but actual generators like RAD-style scaffolding or Domain Specific Languages. I feel that building simple apps is still as complicated as it was twenty years ago, maybe even more. With everything we have today, why does it still feel this heavy? I would love to hear past experiences, suggestions, or ideas from people who have tried to make this easier in their teams.
