Enclose code in brackets or quotes
Select code and enter one of the following opening characters to add the matching closing character at the end of the selection:
- (
- {
- [
- <
- "
- '
To specify whether to automatically insert matching characters, go to Preferences > Text Editor > Completion and select options in Automatically Insert Matching Characters.

Also, Qt Creator automatically inserts the closing character of a raw string literal prefix.
