Hey everyone,

We've been working on a couple of VS Code extensions aimed at OpenEdge ABL developers and wanted to share them with the community. Both are free and available on the VS Code Marketplace. Hopefully they save someone a headache or two.

ABLUnit Runner

If you’re running ABLUnit tests from VS Code, you may have run into limitations with larger or long-running test suites. ABLUnit Runner is designed with that in mind—it executes your tests via a batch script and brings the results back into VS Code’s native Test Results view.

It’s not a replacement for your existing test setup, but it does make running bigger suites from within the editor much more practical.

CrossWayAI

CrossWayAI is aimed at understanding and navigating the codebase, in your current project or in a new one. It visualizes file, module, and symbol dependencies in OpenEdge ABL projects, with optional AI-assisted analysis to help generate and update dependency graphs interactively.

We’ve found it especially useful for onboarding, refactoring, and assessing the impact of changes before making them.

Both are open source on GitHub (wayfarero) if you want to explore the code, suggest improvements, or contribute. Big thanks to​ our enthusiastic team for driving these forward.

Happy to answer questions or hear feedback from anyone who tries them out.
