SWE-bench is a benchmark for evaluating large language models on real world software issues collected from GitHub. Given a codebase and an issue, a language model is tasked with generating a patch that resolves the described problem.
To build SWE-bench from source, follow these steps:
- Clone this repository locally
cd
into the repository.- Run
conda env create -f environment.yml
to created a conda environment namedswe-bench
- Activate the environment with
conda activate swe-bench
You can download the SWE-bench dataset directly (dev, test sets) or from HuggingFace.
To use SWE-Bench, you can:
- Train your own models on our pre-processed datasets
- Run inference on existing models (either models you have on-disk like LLaMA, or models you have access to through an API like GPT-4). The inference step is where you get a repo and an issue and have the model try to generate a fix for it.
- Evaluate models against SWE-bench. This is where you take a SWE-Bench task and a model-proposed solution and evaluate its correctness.
- Run SWE-bench's data collection procedure on your own repositories, to make new SWE-Bench tasks.
We've also written the following blog posts on how to use different parts of SWE-bench. If you'd like to see a post about a particular topic, please let us know via an issue.
