Summary

Azure DevOps, the successor to Microsoft Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS), supports continuous integration and continuous deployment (CI/CD) along with various build tools like Maven, NPM, Docker, and now NuGet, thanks to the enhanced JFrog Artifactory Extension. This integration allows for the triggering of builds with NuGet packages and the uploading of build information to Artifactory, which serves as a universal binary repository manager supporting all major package formats. The extension enhances Azure DevOps and Team Foundation Server (TFS) by providing full traceability of builds through the capture of build information, which can be associated with the build job that created them. Users can configure Azure DevOps to access the Artifactory instance, create a NuGet build pipeline, and configure tasks to push build info to Artifactory, which can then be accessed directly from the Artifactory tab in the build results. The JFrog Artifactory Extension is available in the Visual Studio marketplace, offering a streamlined process for managing Microsoft-based pipelines.
