GH-100 PRACTICE TEST
The GH-100 practice test is designed for intermediate professionals in software development who are beginning to integrate GitHub Copilot into their workflows. This test is ideal for individuals with a solid understanding of GitHub fundamentals and basic security practices, aiming to enhance their AI-assisted development capabilities.
Why should I take the GH-100 exam?
The GH-100 certification validates your ability to effectively use GitHub Copilot in day-to-day development tasks. It demonstrates your skills in prompt engineering, managing Copilot suggestions, and integrating AI assistance into coding, testing, and documentation workflows.
You’ll also gain recognition for understanding Copilot’s role in improving productivity, maintaining code quality, and supporting collaborative development. The GH-100 is intended for developers, QA engineers, and DevOps practitioners who want to build foundational expertise in AI-powered development. It serves as a stepping stone toward advanced certifications like the GH-300
The GH-100 practice test includes two different modes: certification and practice mode. Certification mode allows you to assess your knowledge and discover your weak areas, while practice mode helps you focus on the areas that need development.

System Requirements
A practice test simulates the actual test and aims to provide you with optimal preparation for what to expect on the real exam. A MeasureUp practice test includes around 150 questions covering the exam objective domains. There are two possible test-taking modes to prepare students for their certification: Certification Mode and Practice Mode.
- Practice Mode allows users to highly customize their testing environment. They may select how many questions to include, the maximum time to finish, randomize question order, and choose how and which questions are shown.
- Certification Mode simulates the actual testing environment. It is timed and does not permit users to view answers or explanations until after the test.
