Adding the Test App to the Artifacts

In my previous post (https://klemmensen.ca/2018/11/27/build-numbering-with-yaml/) I expanded the scripts Freddy has created with the ability to number the builds and the compiled app (artifacts) automatically.

Another little thing I noticed was that Freddy’s script doesn’t store the Test App in the Artifacts, however as many of us need to upload the finished product to AppSource we need the Test App too.

This can be accomplished by a simple little change to the “CI.yml” file.

Add this

– task: PublishBuildArtifacts@1
  displayName: ‘Publish Artifact: TestApp’
  inputs:
    PathtoPublish: ‘$(Build.ArtifactStagingDirectory)\test’
    ArtifactName: TestApp

right after the “Publish Artifact: App” task which currently is the second last task in Freddy’s version of the “CI.yml” file.

The test app will now show up under the Artifacts when you click the drop down arrow.

As always I hope this helps you getting started with Azure DevOps and Source Code Management.

Enjoy,

Soren
