# About Azure DevOps extension

> Azure DevOps extension for building, deploying, and testing UiPath automation processes.

The Azure DevOps extension allows you to build and deploy UiPath automation processes, as well as run UiPath automated test
cases. In order to pack projects created with UiPath Studio starting from 20.10, you need to use a version starting from 2.1
of this extension.

## Prerequisites

You must be aware of the following prerequisites when using the Azure DevOps extension:

* You must execute tasks on a Windows-based build agent
* Orchestrator instance (basic, federated or cloud authentication are supported)
  + Testing features require Orchestrator version 20.4 or newer
  + When using an on-premise Orchestrator under HTTPS, make sure to import the SSL Certificate so that the HTTPS calls to Orchestrator
    can be trusted
