This workshop will cover core CI/CD concepts and best practices, and review real-world release management and automation problems and how to overcome them using Azure, Azure DevOps, and Octopus Deploy.
What you will learn: We will start by taking an existing sample repository and get that building locally in Visual Studio. We will then take the application and get it building and testing on Azure DevOps, then configure the Release and lastly pass the artifact through to Octopus Deploy ready for deployment.
You will get hands-on access to provisioning infrastructure on Azure, building an Azure DevOps pipeline & creating an Octopus Cloud instance. You will use all of these tools to configure and prepare a build, test it, create the release and deployment pipeline of a sample application and get you deploying from Dev, through to test and lastly to Production.
