Code documentation for an existing code is not possible by writing prompts; rather, code documentation is possible while generating new code/suggestions from Copilot. State True or False.

Select one:

True
False

I am facing an error in my existing Java Selenium code and I want to debug my code to find the root cause of the error and fix it. What would be my plan of action?

Option 1: Below my existing code in the IDE, I will just write a prompt to debug and generate the new code.
Option 2: I will be providing the file path or part of my code as the additional context to my prompt in the Copilot Chat where I will ask Copilot to first point out the root cause of the error and then debug and generate the updated version.

Select one:
A. None of the listed options
B. Both the Options.
C. Option 1
D. Option 2

Answer (2)

The first statement about code documentation is False, as Copilot can help document existing code. For debugging Java Selenium code, Option 2 is the best choice, as providing context enables more precise assistance. It’s important to guide Copilot with specifics to solve the errors effectively.

For the first question, the statement 'Code documentation for an existing code is not possible by writing prompts; rather, code documentation is possible while generating new code/suggestions from Copilot.' is False.
Code documentation can be done separately from the code generation process. Tools like Copilot may assist in generating comments or documentation when writing new code, but documentation can also be created after the code has been written by manually adding comments or using documentation generation tools. It does not strictly depend on new code generation capabilities.
For the second question, Let's analyze the options:
Option 1 suggests writing a prompt below the existing code in the IDE to debug and generate new code. This might not effectively help in debugging since simply writing a prompt does not provide context to the debugging tool about what needs fixing.
Option 2 involves providing the file path or part of the code as additional context in Copilot Chat to ask it to point out the root cause of the error and then debug and generate the updated version. This option gives more context and is more likely to result in a successful debug process by leveraging Copilot's capabilities.
Therefore, for the task of identifying and fixing an error in the existing Java Selenium code, the best course of action is Option 2.
Chosen multiple choice option for the second part: Option 2.
