TDD on autopilot: Letting Copilot Take the Wheel

16:15 - 17:00 SCREEN 11 Back to event schedule

In the AL world, Test-Driven Development has about the same appeal as a manual year-end closing. It's been pushed aside, labeled as that thing that "sounds great in theory" but takes too much time in practice. But what if I told you GitHub Copilot could turn TDD from your least favorite chore into your secret productivity weapon?

This session shows how Copilot doesn't just write tests - it helps you craft code that practically tests itself. You'll see how the right structure makes Copilot an eerily accurate test writer, transforming that "red-green-refactor" cycle from a marathon into a sprint. No more staring at blank test files wondering where to start.

You'll see how Copilot works on the inside, and -- armed with that knowledge -- how to use it in the most productive way to have it always propose exactly that code that you would write yourself, just in far less time, and without trial and error.

Join in, and let's put Copilot in the driver's seat - autopilot for your test suite, if you will.

Vjekoslav Babic

Solutions Architect | MVP

Vjekoslav Babić, or just Vjeko, is a Business Central architect, developer, trainer, author and blogger. With more than two decades of experience in the IT, he worked with vast range of technologies.

Deep down, Vjeko is an incurable hacker who took quite a long time to realize that the one thing he really loves is writing code, plain and simple. He immensely enjoys breaking things apart to see how they work, not necessarily always putting them back together. As a frequent speaker at conferences, in his demos, and on his blog, he is always pushing the boundaries of what's possible, connecting the world of Business Central with just about anything that can be plugged into it through some obscure loophole or undocumented interface.

Since spring 2010, Vjeko has been awarded the Most Valuable Professional (MVP) award for Microsoft Dynamics NAV. You can meet him at his blog "Vjeko.com - ideas in the cloud".
