This sounds like fuzzing. Do you want fuzzing?

I believe a key component of fuzz testing is randomized input. I’m talking about recording live usage of an application and capturing the observed I/O. Like Playwright, mentioned above, but applied to unit testing rather than E2E.

It's not a key component, in fact a lot of fuzzers do intelligent input culling and whatnot based on static analysis.
