This is an old decompiled / imported / tweaked multiple times project with lots of complex per-character rules that make it hard to find regressions at development time.

That being said it lacks tests:

• Some that run on excerpt constants in the code
• Some that run on text files and apply given methods
  For example:
  src/test/resources/out/file1.methodX.methodY.sample would trigger a test asserting that its content is the same as what methodY(methodX({content of src/test/resources/in/file1.sample}) outputs (don't do reflection there are 3 buttons)

This thing is atrocious and using an up-to-date graphic lib would help when something needs to change (probably something like JavaFX but I hate GUI tinkering and I don't know what's trendy and well supported, tell me if you think of something better)

The deconstructed window is:

• 2 text panels ('In' of the left and 'Out' on the right, 'Out' being read only)
• 3 buttons below, triggering actions with the content of the text panels (probably both) and updates the 'Out' one
• The vertical carets are somehow synced so that when processing some long text corresponding lines stay at the same level (the chorus button breaks it)
• resizable but looks like shit and resizing makes it worse
