Auto-generate unit tests

If you have the ELT Assistant add-on, you can use the Auto-generate tests feature to create unit tests.

Important

Auto-generating unit tests only works with the ELT Assistant subscription add-on.

You can also opt to customize the test results with the advanced feature:

  • Share data with AI for realistic results: Use sample data to make your tests more realistic and effective at uncovering issues. When you enable this option, the application sends a data subset to the AI as an example.

  • Use custom test instructions: Provide custom instructions or sample data for the AI. The AI will follow these instructions instead of the default guidelines when generating unit tests.
