Azure DevOps is a comprehensive set of tools that automates the software delivery pipeline — from code integration, testing, and build, to deployment. It enables developers to move away from manual processes and adopt fast, consistent, and reliable CI/CD practices.

𝗞𝗲𝘆 𝗥𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗼𝗻𝘀𝗶𝗯𝗶𝗹𝗶𝘁𝗶𝗲𝘀:

• Automating build and release pipelines

• Managing version control using Repos

• Planning and tracking with Boards

• Running tests as part of the pipeline
