Automated Testing Using Azure DevOps

on YouTube ↗46m

" summary

Azure DevOps runs CI/CD pipelines that pull from Git/GitHub, spin up Docker or VM agents, run unit and UI tests (MSTest, Selenium, Postman/Newman), measure code quality with SonarQube and produce reports (ReportGenerator, Power BI). The platform exposes 500+ connectors, the demo generator ships demo generator with 30–40 templates that deploy sample sites, and the service is free for five users. Automation focuses on code, workflows, infrastructure; pipelines and reporting work, but flaky tests remain an issue.
