QUESTION: 2

You are working on a small web application with a User model that contains the following method:

class User:

def __init__(self, username, age):

self.username = username

self.age = age

def is_adult(self):

return self.age >= 18

works correctly when integrated with other parts of the web application, such as a view that restricts certain
content to adults. What is the best strategy to generate these integration tests using GitHub Copilot?

Option A : Ask Copilot to generate unit tests for the is_adult() method, assuming it will be sufficient to
verify the method without integration testing.
Option B : Instruct Copilot to generate a test for is_adult() alone and verify its output for users over 18.
Option C : Use Copilot to generate an integration test that verifies how the is_adult() method behaves
within a complete workflow, such as attempting to access restricted content based on the user’s age.
Option D : Instruct Copilot to focus only on testing the function without considering how it interacts with
other system components.
