QUESTION 6
What method can be used to interact with GitHub Copilot?

A. By using a properly configured GitHub CLI


B. By using chat capabilities in NeoVim
C. From a watch window in an IDE debug session
D. From a web browser at https://github.copilot.com

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:
GitHub Copilot is an AI-powered code completion tool that integrates directly into supported Integrated
Development Environments (IDEs) and code editors, such as Visual Studio Code, JetBrains IDEs,
NeoVim, and others. Developers interact with it through their coding environment, where it provides real-
time code suggestions, autocompletions, and (in some cases) chat-like capabilities via extensions or
plugins (e.g., GitHub Copilot Chat in supported editors).

Evaluation of

A. By using a properly configured GitHub CLIThe GitHub CLI (Command Line Interface) is a tool for
interacting with GitHub repositories and workflows from the terminal, but it is not a method for interacting
with GitHub Copilot. Copilot operates within code editors/IDEs, not through the CLI.Incorrect.

B. By using chat capabilities in NeoVimThis is partially correct. GitHub Copilot can be used in NeoVim with
the appropriate plugin (e.g., the Copilot.vim plugin), and GitHub Copilot Chat--a feature that
allowsconversational interaction--may also be available depending on the setup and version. However,
"chat capabilities in NeoVim" alone is not the primary or standard way to describe Copilot interaction, as it's
more about code suggestions than chat. This is the closest option but not perfectly precise.Partially
correct.

C. From a watch window in an IDE debug sessionThe "watch window" in an IDE is used during debugging
to monitor variable values, not to interact with GitHub Copilot. Copilot provides suggestions while coding,
not specifically in debug sessions or watch windows.Incorrect.

D. From a web browser athttps://github.copilot.comThere is no such URL as "https://github.copilot.com "


dedicated to interacting with GitHub Copilot. Copilot is accessed via GitHub's authentication and integrated
into editors/IDEs, not through a standalone web browser interface. Information about Copilot is available
on GitHub's official site (e.g.,https://github.com/features/copilot ), but interaction happens in the coding
environment.Incorrect.

[Reference: GitHub Copilot interaction documentation., ]

QUESTION 7
How does GitHub Copilot Chat utilize its training data and external sources to generate responses when
answering coding QUESTION?

A. It primarily relies on the model's training data to generate responses.


B. It primarily uses search results from Bing to generate responses.
C. It combines its training data set, code in user repositories, and external sources like Bing to generate
responses.
D. It uses user-provided documentation exclusively to generate responses.

Correct Answer: C
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:

GitHub Copilot Chat combines its training data, code from user repositories, and external sources like Bing
to generate comprehensive and relevant responses to coding QUESTION.

[Reference: GitHub Copilot Chat documentation on data sources.]

QUESTION 8
How can you improve the context used by GitHub Copilot? (Each correct answer presents part of the
solution. Choose two.)

A. By opening the relevant tabs in your IDE


B. By adding relevant code snippets to your prompt
C. By adding the important files to your .gitconfig
D. By adding the full file paths to your prompt of important files
Correct Answer: AB
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:

Improving the context for GitHub Copilot involves opening relevant files in your IDE to provide immediate
context and adding relevant code snippets directly to your prompts to give Copilot specific examples and
information.

[Reference: GitHub Copilot prompt engineering and context management.]

QUESTION 9
How can GitHub Copilot be limited when it comes to suggesting unit tests?

A. GitHub Copilot can generate all types of unit tests, including those for edge cases and complex
integration scenarios.
B. GitHub Copilot primarily suggests basic unit tests that focus on core functionalities, often requiring
additional input from developers for comprehensive coverage.
C. GitHub Copilot can handle any complexity in code and automatically generate appropriate unit tests.
D. GitHub Copilot's limitations in generating unit tests can vary based on the IDE version you are using.

Correct Answer: B
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
Explanation:

GitHub Copilot often suggests basic unit tests and may not cover all edge cases or complex integration
scenarios, requiring developers to supplement its suggestions.

[Reference: GitHub Copilot testing limitations.]

QUESTION 10
How do you generate code suggestions with GitHub Copilot in the CLI?

A. Write code comments -> Press the suggestion shortcut -> Select the best suggestion from the list.

C. Type out the code snippet -> Use the copilot refine command to enhance it -> Review the suggested
command.
D. Describe the project's architecture -> Use the copilot generate command -> Accept the generated
suggestion.

Correct Answer: A
Section: (none)
Explanation

Explanation/Reference:
