Microsoft has announced full Azure DevOps support for its modern .NET testing solution, Microsoft.Testing.Platform, marking a major step toward smoother CI/CD testing workflows. The update introduces intelligent handling of test retries and better pipeline integration, aiming to improve reliability and clarity in automated test results.

Here’s what you need to know:

What’s New in Azure DevOps?
Azure DevOps now provides first-class support for Microsoft.Testing.Platform, allowing you to run tests with the familiar DotNetCoreCLI task and handle retries intelligently.
What is Microsoft.Testing.Platform?
Microsoft.Testing.Platform is a modern, lightweight alternative to VSTest, built for flexibility and performance.
Running Tests in Azure DevOps
Run tests using the recommended DotNetCoreCLI task or execute dotnet test directly when custom scripting is needed.
Understanding Retry Outcomes
Retry results clearly show whether tests pass on the first run, pass after a retry, or fail after all retry attempts.
Get Started Today
Upgrade to .NET SDK 10, add the Retry extension, enable AllowPTRToDetectTestRunRetryFiles, and run tests with the --retry-failed-tests flag.
