My name is Tyler Stennett, and I'm a first-year computer science Ph.D. student at the Georgia Institute of Technology. I'm currently a member of Georgia Tech's Software Engineering Lab, advised by Professor Alessandro Orso. My research focuses on AI for software engineering, especially LLM- and agent-based approaches for automated software testing. I've also served as a research intern at IBM Research.
π» I'm currently working on research at the intersection of large language models, software testing, program analysis, and autonomous agents.
π Much of my recent work explores how LLMs and agentic systems can improve automated software testing. This includes RESTGPT, published in ICSE-NIER 2024, and AutoRestTest, published as a research paper in ICSE 2025 and as a demonstration paper in ICSE-Demo 2025. I have also contributed to SAINT, an approach to service-level test generation using program analysis and LLM-based agents published in ICSE 2026 and Hamster, an empirical study on developer-written tests at scale published in ICSE-SEIP 2026.
π Some of my earlier research includes human activity recognition for smart home environments, where I studied change point detection for smart home sensor data using supervised and unsupervised learning as part of my completed undergraduate thesis.
