C++26: Reflection, Memory Safety, Contracts, and a New Async Model
The C++26 standard draft is now complete, reports Herb Sutter, long-time C++ expert and former chair of the ISO C++ standards committee. The finalized draft introduces reflection, enhances memory safety without requiring code rewrites, adds contracts with preconditions and postconditions alongside a new assertion statement, and establishes a unified framework for concurrency and parallelism.
By Sergio De SimoneMeta Reports 4x Higher Bug Detection with Just-in-Time Testing
Meta introduces Just-in-Time (JiT) testing, a dynamic approach that generates tests during code review instead of relying on static test suites. The system improves bug detection by ~4x in AI-assisted development using LLMs, mutation testing, and intent-aware workflows like Dodgy Diff. It reflects a shift toward change-aware, AI-driven software testing in agentic development environments
