Overview of this book

Developing applications for the cloud involves changing development methodologies and procedures. Continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) processes are a must today, but are often difficult to implement and adopt. Azure DevOps is a Microsoft Azure cloud service that enhances your application development life cycle and enables DevOps capabilities. Starting with a comprehensive product overview, this book helps you to understand Azure DevOps and apply DevOps techniques to your development projects. You'll find out how to adopt DevOps techniques for your development processes by using built-in Azure DevOps tools. Throughout the course of this book, you'll also discover how to manage a project with the help of project management techniques such as Agile and Scrum, and then progress toward development aspects such as source code management, build pipelines, code testing and artifacts, release pipelines, and GitHub integration. As you learn how to implement DevOps practices, this book will also provide you with real-world examples and scenarios of DevOps adoption. By the end of this DevOps book, you will have learned how to adopt and implement Azure DevOps features in your real-world development processes.

Running and analyzing a manual test plan

In this demonstration, we are going to run and analyze a manual test plan. For this, we are going to use the test plan that is already added to the Parts.Unlimited project in Azure DevOps again and import a test suite. The test suite can be downloaded from the GitHub repository that belongs to this chapter. You can obtain the GitHub URL at the beginning of the chapter from the Technical requirements section:

  1. Open the test plan of the Parts.Unlimited project again in Azure DevOps.
  2. First, we need to add a new static test suite. For this, select the three dots next to Parts.Unlimited_TestPlan1 > New Suite > Static suite. Name the suite End-to-end tests.
  3. Select the newly created suite and in the top menu, select the import button to import test cases:
