I have a requirement to import the Excel Based Test Cases into VSTS and Export Test Cases from VSTS into MS Excel. VSTS(Not TFS) You can use below way to export test cases from VSTS to MS excel: Define a query for the test case you want to export. Create new query for all test case -> specify Work Item Type = Test case . Connect in MS excel. MS excel -> Team ribbon -> New List -> Servers -> add -> input VSTS URL( https://account.visualstudio.com ) -> OK -> Close -> select a team project -> connect -> choose Query list -> select the query you just created -> OK. Now all the test cases are

My team uses VSTS for CI/CD of a web project. In order to keep our code separated, we use two separate repositories for front-end and back-end. Two questions are raised by this: How do I set up a build that merges the build artifacts from the two repositories into a single release? How do I trigger this single build/release process from each repository separately? First step is to create a CI build for both repositories. Once you have them compiling and generating the necessary artifacts, you need to create a single CD release. At the top of the editor, there is an Artifacts tab. Once there,

I am trying to create a release without mapping a existing build in TFS/VSTS and get data display in release summary once it is completed. in plain text steps are following Release -> Empty Release Definition -> Add build task - > Create Release -> Deploy -> View Data in Summary Section Summary data are view-able as expected without any issues with following two scenarios Build - > Create build definition -> Add task - > Save and Queue build – Build Success - > View Summary Data Release -> Empty Release Definition -> Link pre-defined Build definition -> Create Release -> provide successfully

This is a follow-up question to this question . The answer in the original question helped me, but I am stuck somewhere else. As a reminder, I want to deploy my application using a publish profile. My web app in Azure has two subfolders inside wwwroot and one of them is called backend . I want to deploy my application to that folder. I am not sure why msdeploy wants to create anything, since the web app is already there - I just need to get the artifacts inside the backend folder. Here is the relevant part of the log (with some names changed to xyz ): 2018-06-14T09:19:25.0295238Z Start

I have configured Microsoft Azure DevOps to build our software and release it automatically. (With the Build and with the release Pipeline) After the succesful release I have set it up, to send an email to all project-members. My question is: Can I somehow configure this email? E.g. I need to remove the "Summary" part. Is this somehow possible with Azure Devops? Screenshot of current email: No, currently you can't configure the email templates. there is a popular feature request about it, you can up vote there. As workaround, you can install the Send Email task, and add it to the release

A project I'm working on has 2 long-standing feature branches as well as the master branch. To fully automate deployments, I'd like to create a pull request from master into those two feature branches anytime a deployment goes out from a VSTS Release. What kind of tooling in VSTS would allow me to do create pull requests as a release task? You can create the Pull Request through Pull Request REST API during the release. There is Invoke HTTP REST API task but may not good for your requirement. The simple way is that you can do it through PowerShell task : Select the phase (e.g. Run on agent)
