Ockhamareto: Pareto-Gated Segment-Level Credit Assignment for Concise Unit-Test Generation with Reinforcement Learning

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 25, 2026 · UTC

We introduce \textbf{Ockhamareto}, a single-shot GRPO framework for unit-test generation and selection, based on the principles of \emph{Ockham's Razor} and \emph{Pareto Optimality}. Ockhamareto has two principal components: (i)~a \emph{Pareto-gated Bonus} that rewards only rollouts non-dominated in~(mutation, $-$\#tests) space, and (ii)~\emph{Token-level Segment Credit}, which attributes each test's marginal mutation kills back to the tokens of its unit-test block. On the \emph{UnLeakedTestBench~(ULT)}, Ockhamareto \emph{strictly Pareto-dominates} the strongest RL baseline~(\emph{MIST-RL}). F
