120. Azure Test Plans and Customizing Azure DevOps for Effective Test Management
https://www.betabit.nl/en/betatalks
Bram and Ester talk about the challenges of organizing manual and automated tests. Ester shows how customizing Azure DevOps provides a more practical and effective way to manage tests than relying on Azure Test Plans. Although the tool offered useful features, she found it inefficient, poorly documented, and difficult to use, so she turned to customizing DevOps tasks with properties for test type and status. This approach gave her team better transparency and flexibility at no extra cost.
