Node.js is a cross-platform, open source platform built on Chrome's JavaScript runtime for fast and scalable server-side and networking applications. It is very popular for both frontend as well as server-side programming. In this recipe, you'll learn how to set up a CI pipeline for a Node.js application using gulp.
The focus of the recipe is to help you understand the construction of a CI pipeline for a Node.js application. To abstract the complexity of the node application out of the recipe, we'll be using a demo code repository from GitHub. To get started, simply import the following code base from https://github.com/nilaydshah/MochaTypescriptTest-101/ into your team foundation server. You can also create a new Node.js code repository in Visual Studio code using the instructions in this blog post: https://blogs.msdn.microsoft.com/nilayshah/2018/01/07/unit-testing-node-application-with-typescript-in-vs-code-%E2%80%8A-%E2...
