Close up picture of my Yellow Labrador in a sitting position. She is looking directly at the camera with an open mouth smile.

Arranging tests... Inspired by haacked.com/archive/2012...
4 panel galaxy brain meme with increasing brain images: A test method is a test fixture and test case; A test class is a fixture: move your arrange code to the constructor; A test class is a test case: move your act code to the constructor; A test class is both a test fixture and test case: embed your test case classes into your test fixture class and inherit the fixture to share arrange code.

If you already know how to code in one language then using GitHub CoPilot Chat can be super helpful as a virtual colleague when you are working in new or unfamiliar territory.

Converting code with GPT/CoPilot: Converting code between Javascript technologies isn't simple but GPT/Copilots can do a lot of the heavy lifting.

Image from Bournemouth beach looking out to sea on a cold winter day. The sky is grey and overcast and it covers two-thirds of the image; the sea is green with white surf and some waves. What little beach visible is damp from the waves. On the right there is a wooden groyne at almost the horizon line reaching into the image about one-third of the way. Above the groyne on the horizon is a sliver of land across the bay from the beach. This extends about half the length of the groyne. There is nobody in the shot.
