I’ve always wondered how to get code coverage information for a .net core app in my build pipeline in Azure Pipelines. When I just use the standard .net core template from AzD, I get my test results published but I don’t get any code coverage info.

We’ve always had the ability to add manual approvers before and after every deployment environment. And now, we have the ability to also add automated gates using continuous monitoring. Out of the box, there are 4 … [Read more…]
The League was asked by twitter to show how to build and deploy a web app to multiple on prem IIS Servers and the schema of the database for the web app to an on prem SQL Server. Totally a fair request. All of my demos recently have been using PaaS, Azure SQL and Containers. … [Read more…]
I was creating a new demo for an upcoming event and needed a clean VSTS account, so I started completely from scratch and created a brand new VSTS account.
