I will demonstrate how to setup basic continuous integration to build, test and publish code every time someone commits changes to version control.

Requirements

3. For the Agent queue select Hosted VS2017
4. Click Get sources and then
5. Click the Triggers tab in the build definition, and Enable the Continuous Integration trigger
