We previously attempted to speed up no-workspace tests [1] but realised we still needed to run some setup steps to get the latest files [2]. Given that we already have `npm run watch` running in the background when we run our tests, we should be able to regenerate files on the fly. This means we can drop `gulp` from our setup steps when running integration tests. While there's still a danger that you forget to run `npm run watch` in the background, we think the massive speed up (10s -> 1s) is worth it as we add more and more tests to this extension.

CodeQL for Visual Studio Code
This project is an extension for Visual Studio Code that adds rich language support for CodeQL. It's used to find problems in code bases using CodeQL. It's written primarily in TypeScript.
The extension is released. You can download it from the Visual Studio Marketplace.
To see what has changed in the last few versions of the extension, see the Changelog.
Features
- Enables you to use CodeQL to query databases and discover problems in codebases.
- Shows the flow of data through the results of path queries, which is essential for triaging security results.
- Provides an easy way to run queries from the large, open source repository of CodeQL security queries.
- Adds IntelliSense to support you writing and editing your own CodeQL query and library files.
Project goals and scope
This project will track new feature development in CodeQL and, whenever appropriate, bring that functionality to the Visual Studio Code experience.
