Speed Development with Autocompletions and Test Generation

Learning Objectives

After completing this unit, you’ll be able to:

• Access Inline Autocomplete.
• Explain how to access code suggestions.
• Use Agentforce to write unit tests.

Get Coding Help with Inline Autocompletions

The AI-powered Inline Autocompletions tool makes your development experience easier and more efficient. It works with Apex and LWC (JavaScript, CSS, and HTML) files. Inline Autocomplete suggests code completions for you within your editor, so you don’t ‌spend time searching for the right syntax. While it’s at work, a tiny sparkle ✨ in your editor lets you know that Agentforce is getting ready to come up with suggestions. Just browse the handful of code suggestions and accept the one that works best for you.

When writing code, you’re often doing things like assigning variable values to an SObjectCopy such as Account.name = 'abc'Copy in Apex, or writing SOQL to query for product attributes. Pause the cursor in your code and watch Agentforce Vibes suggest a completion and fill out the remaining code in grayed (ghost) text.

You can also manually trigger an autocomplete using the Option (⌥)\ hotkeys for Mac and Alt+\ for windows. To view other hotkeys, go to Settings | Keyboard Shortcuts and search for AgentforceCopy.

Generate Comprehensive Tests with Agentforce

If you’re an Apex programmer, you know the rules: Unit tests must cover at least 75% of your Apex code. All of those tests must pass before you can make your code available or package it for AppExchange. Agentforce revolutionizes test creation by understanding your code context and automatically generating comprehensive test suites that cover various scenarios, edge cases, and business logic requirements.

Agentic Test Generation with Natural Language

Simply chat with Agentforce using natural language to create complete test suites. Here are powerful ways to use Agentforce for testing.

Complete Test Suite Creation

• “Generate comprehensive unit tests for my AccountService class, including positive, negative, and edge cases”
• “Create test classes for all my Apex classes that don’t have adequate coverage”
• “Build a complete test suite for my Lightning web component with mock data and user interaction scenarios”

Intelligent Test Analysis

• “Analyze my existing tests and identify gaps in coverage, then generate the missing test methods”
• “Review my test failures and create additional test cases to improve reliability”
• “Generate performance tests for my bulk data processing methods”

Context-Aware Test Enhancement

Agentforce understands your existing codebase and testing patterns. When you ask for tests, Agentforce automatically:

• Follows your organization’s testing conventions and naming patterns.
• Creates realistic test data based on your object relationships.
• Generates tests that complement your existing test suite without duplication.
• Includes proper assertions, setup methods, and teardown procedures.
• Ensures tests align with your security model and sharing rules.

Continuous Test Improvement

As your code evolves, Agentforce can continuously enhance your test coverage by analyzing code changes and suggesting new test scenarios, ensuring your test suite remains robust and comprehensive.
