Preparation:

You need Fiddler or similar product to monitor network traffic.
After installation modify extension by adding proxy to Fidler in requestOptions

Test scenario 1 :

Install VSC extension for the first time(You may need to delete local storage to simulate this)
In the right lower corner of VSC user should see message with option to tun on or off analytics
User click 'YES'
Open preferences/Settings and confirm "nativescript.analytics.enabled": true
Stop VSC and Execute preparation steps
Open VSC and execute some nativescript specific command like "Launch on Android"
Request to google-analytics should appear in Fiddler - inspect it for user sensitive info
