Constrained decoding derived from OpenAPI specifications eliminates hallucinated web API calls in LLM-generated code and substantially improves correctness across 24 models, while retrieval-augmented generation yields inconsistent, model-dependent gains.
Prompt Coverage Adequacy, measured via attention boosting in LLMs, is associated with fault detection and uncovers over 30% more faults than traditional code coverage when guiding test generation across two datasets.
