## New Diffblue Cover features

Four new features - Reports, Optimize, Refactor and Replay - have been added in this release of Diffblue Cover. In addition to autonomously writing and maintaining entire unit test suites without developer intervention, Cover Enterprise Edition now enables you to:

* Automatically refactor Java code to improve testability
* Slash the time and cost to run tests in Continuous Integration
* Understand test coverage and code risk across your organization
* Automatically shift complex functional tests left into unit test suites

Use Diffblue Cover on any CI platform to automatically update your unit tests and catch regressions for every commit - watch [this video](https://www.diffblue.com/video-demo/?utm_source=Plugin\&utm_medium=Whatsnew\&utm_campaign=WhatsNewBox) to learn more.

## Enhancements

* IntelliJ Plugin: Cover now asks for a test framework to be selected, via the plugin settings, when multiple test frameworks are on the classpath, rather than defaulting to JUnit 5. \[Ref: TG-18006]
* Cover now supports customizing test inputs via `DiffblueRules.yaml` in addition to the previously supported `DiffblueRules.yml`, with the former taking precedence. Problems with custom inputs are treated as an error and Cover will not attempt to create tests with invalid custom input rules. See the [customizing test inputs](https://github.com/diffblue/website-docs/blob/develop/knowledge-base/cli/custom-inputs/README.md) documentation for more details.

## Resolved Issues

* Resolved an issue which, in some circumstances, caused Cover to report `F009` instead of writing tests because of a field inheriting from a class with generic parameters. \[Ref: TG-18097]
* Resolved an issue which caused Cover to attempt to mock non-accessible, package-private, classes whilst writing tests from outside of their package. \[Ref: TG-18070]
