It assumes your existing code is 100% right.

While rarely 100% true: Most of the code in a working application should be correct; and when working with a currently un/poorly tested codebase; "does this change I'm making affect anything else" is probably the most important question to answer. And this tool looks like it should answer that.

Since one of the .net applications I'm working on has a very old code base which mostly hasn't had test coverage added after the fact, this intigues me enough that I'm strongly tempted to setup a VM to see what this tool is able to produce.

The tool itself appears to be an outgrowth of Code Digger/Pex[^] which was a tool that would generate a complete set of test inputs for functions in portable class libraries that MS Research demoed a few years ago.
Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason?
Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful?
