Comprehensive Evaluation of Large Language Models on Software Engineering Tasks: A Multi-Task Benchmark
arXiv:2602.07079v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) have demonstrated remarkable capabilities in software engineering, yet comprehensive benchmarks covering diverse SE activities remain limited. We present a multi-task evaluation of 11 state-of-the-art LLMs across five representative software engineering tasks: bug fixing, feature development, code refactoring, technical copywriting, and research synthesis. Our automated verification framework measures both output quality and completion efficiency. Key findings reveal that (1) models achieving identical perfect scores exhibit 22x variation in completion time, […]
