ScarfBench: Benchmarking AI Agents for Enterprise Java Framework Migration

Practical AI: Tools, Models & Frameworksframework

What changed

Recent advances in coding agents have sparked excitement around AI-assisted modernization. But an important question remains: Can AI agents reliably modernize real-world enterprise applications? To address this gap, we introduce ScarfBench (Self-Contained Application Refactoring Benchmark), an open benchmark for evaluating AI agents on cross-framework migration tasks in Enterprise Java.

Why it matters

A concrete addition to Practical AI: Tools, Models & Frameworks: it changes what's available to builders today rather than being general commentary.
