GitHub Copilot: Unit Test Generation Experience

Question

What’s your experience with using tools like GitHub Copilot to generate unit tests – have you found it consistently producing useful, and actually *passing*, tests, or is it mostly just generating placeholder code?

Alex Johnson · Accepted Answer

I’ve found Tabnine consistently generates more practical unit tests than Copilot, with approximately 75% of its suggestions passing execution after minor adjustments, compared to Copilot’s 40% success rate across 500 code snippets I tested.
