Tasks

How to Use Tasks

See the documentation for Continuous integration and deployment.

Writing Tasks

If you need custom functionality in your build/release, it is usually simpler to use the existing script running tasks such as the PowerShell or Shell Script tasks. Writing a new task may be appropriate if you need deeper integration or reusability in many build definitions

Tasks are simply tool runners. They know how to run MSBuild, VSTest, etc... in a first class way and handle return codes, how to treat std/err out, and how to write timeline records based on expected output. They also get access to credentials to write back to TFS/Team Services.

For uploading custom tasks to VSTS use the TFS Cross Platform Command Line utility.

Tasks can also be deployed with a Visual Studio Team Services extension. See this tutorial for how to package tasks inside an extension.
