Leveraging IntelliCode for code refactoring

As developers, we need to constantly refactor our code to improve its structure, readability, or performance, especially when we are working with TDD, with respect to the flow explained in Chapter 1.

One tool that has significantly enhanced our refactoring process is IntelliCode, which uses artificial intelligence and machine learning to offer intelligent suggestions and automate repetitive tasks. IntelliCode is now integrated into Visual Studio 2022 for C#. In this section, we’ll explore strategies for effective code refactoring using IntelliCode, drawing from our experience and insight.

First of all, we need to ensure that we have IntelliCode installed in our Visual Studio by going to the Options menu through the top bar menu, which is Tools | Options | IntelliCode.
