UI Improvements
- Token Quota Status: Users can now monitor their token consumption on the Token Quota Status. This helps them manage their work better. The token status resets at the beginning of every month.
- Custom Instructions: Users can now refine their interactions within Copilot4DevOps Plus with custom instructions which will allow them to:
- Choose their preferred AI model – gpt-3.5-turbo-4k, gpt-3.5-turbo-16k, gpt-4-8k, and gpt-4-turbo
- Choose their conversation style: More creative, more balanced, more precise
- Choose their output length: short, medium, or long
- Choose their response language: more than 40 languages available
- Provide modifying prompts for output titles and details
Sharif then illustrated how the gpt-4-turbo model generated a much more detailed analysis on a set of requirements than the gpt-3.5-turbo-4k.
Pseudocode
Copilot4DevOps can now generate pseudocode in many different languages like Javascript, C#, Ruby, Rust, Scala. This helps developers to create a rough draft of their code without having to deal with issues like syntax and other technicalities of coding languages.
Test Scripts
Users can now create test scripts in many languages like Selenium, Kotlin, Matlab, NoSQL, and more. When Modern Requirements’ internal testers started to use this functionality internally, they discovered that they were able to reduce their test scripting efforts by 60%. Users can now create test scripts either from test cases or generate test cases from requirements data using Copilot4DevOps Plus and use it again to create test scripts.
Dynamic Prompt
Sharif also debuted a powerful new feature called Dynamic Prompt. This feature allows users to select one or two queries and give it a prompt on what to do with said queries.
One of his three examples showed how a user can map the user requirements with features along with the extent of the coverage. It returned the following results.
Sharif shared the example of a client who used to do a similar task in two months and instead was now doing it in a couple of days.
Finally, he teased even more exciting features coming in the upcoming months for Copilot4DevOps Plus.
