You store source code in a Git repository in Azure Repos. You use a third-party continuous integration (CI) tool to control builds. What will Azure DevOps use to authenticate with the tool?
Answer: B
The question says: What will Azure DevOps use to authenticate with the tool? Azure devops will not use anything. The third party CI tool will use a PAT to access l Azure DevOps repos.

You have a build pipeline in Azure Pipelines that uses different jobs to compile an application for 10 different architectures. The build pipeline takes approximately one day to complete. You need to reduce the time it takes to execute the build pipeline. Which two actions should you perform? Each correct answer presents part of the solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer: CE
I need more hosted build resources. What can I do? A: The Azure Pipelines pool provides all Azure DevOps organizations with cloud-hosted build agents and free build minutes each month. If you need more Microsoft-hosted build resources, or need to run more jobs in parallel, then you can either: Host your own agents on infrastructure that you manage. Buy additional parallel jobs.

You are creating a build pipeline in Azure Pipelines. You define several tests that might fail due to third-party applications. You need to ensure that the build pipeline completes successfully if the third-party applications are unavailable. What should you do?
Answer: B
A flaky test is a test that provides different outcomes, such as pass or fail, even when there are no changes in the source code or execution environment. Flaky tests also impact the quality of shipped code. flaky test should be the answer

DRAG DROP - You have an Azure subscription that contains a resources group named RG1. RG1 contains the following resources: ✑ Four Azure virtual machines that run Windows Server and have Internet Information Services (IIS) installed. ✑ SQL Server on an Azure virtual machine. ✑ An Azure Load Balancer. You need to deploy an application to the virtual machines in RG1 by using Azure Pipelines. Which four actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order. NOTE: More than one order of answer choices is correct. You will receive credit for any of the correct orders you select. Select and Place:
This is an interactive task on the real exam — a drag-and-drop, hotspot or ordering question. There is nothing to select here, so the answer is shown below for reference.
Answer: See figure below
Step 1: Create an agent pool - Azure Pipelines provides a pre-defined agent pool named Azure Pipelines with Microsoft-hosted agents. Step 2: Create a deployment group Deployment groups make it easy to define logical groups of target machines for deployment, and install the required agent on each machine. Step 3: Add the Azure Pipelines Agent extension to the virtual machines Install the Azure Pipelines Agent Azure VM extension Step 4: Add and configure a deployment group job for the pipeline Tasks that you define in a deployment group job run on some or all of the target servers, depending on the arguments you specify for the tasks and the job itself.

Note: This question is part of a series of questions that present the same scenario. Each question in the series contains a unique solution that might meet the stated goals. Some question sets might have more than one correct solution, while others might not have a correct solution. After you answer a question in this section, you will NOT be able to return to it. As a result, these questions will not appear in the review screen. Your company has a project in Azure DevOps for a new web application. You need to ensure that when code is checked in, a build runs automatically. Solution: From the Triggers tab of the build pipeline, you select Enable continuous integration. Does this meet the goal?
Answer: A
Correct Answer : A (Yes) Select Triggers. The Azure DevOps project automatically created a CI trigger, and every commit to the repository initiates a new build. You can optionally choose to include or exclude branches from the CI process. https://www.azuredevopslabs.com/labs/vstsextend/azuredevopsprojectdotnet/#exercise-2-examine-the--cicd-pipelines-configured-by-azure-devops-project

You have an Azure DevOps organization named Contoso and an Azure DevOps project named Project1. You plan to use Microsoft-hosted agents to build container images that will host full Microsoft .NET Framework apps in a YAML pipeline in Project1. What are two possible virtual machine images that you can use for the Microsoft-hosted agent pool? Each correct answer presents a complete solution. NOTE: Each correct selection is worth one point.
Answer: AB
Correct answer is A/C. You can not have Full .NET framework on Linux (only .NET core). No reason to have any further discussions. I bet my life on my answer.

Your company has a project in Azure DevOps. You need to ensure that when there are multiple builds pending deployment, only the most recent build is deployed. What should you use?
Answer: B
Your company develops a client banking application that processes a large volume of data. Code quality is an ongoing issue for the company. Recently, the code quality has deteriorated because of an increase in time pressure on the development team. You need to implement static code analysis. During which phase should you use static code analysis?
Answer: D
Answer is D . Testing can’t cover every possible code execution path. But a static code analyzer can. It checks the code as you work on your build. You’ll get an in-depth analysis of where there might be potential problems in your code, based on the rules you’ve applied. link : https://www.perforce.com/blog/sca/what-static-analysis#:~:text=Static%20code%20analysis%20is%20performed,during%20the%20%E2%80%9CCreate%E2%80%9D%20phase.

DRAG DROP - You have a project in Azure DevOps that uses packages from multiple public feeds. Some of the feeds are unreliable. You need to consolidate the packages into a single feed. Which three actions should you perform in sequence? To answer, move the appropriate actions from the list of actions to the answer area and arrange them in the correct order. Select and Place:
This is an interactive task on the real exam — a drag-and-drop, hotspot or ordering question. There is nothing to select here, so the answer is shown below for reference.
Answer: See figure below
Step 1: Create a NuGet package. NuGet and Maven are public package managers that support multiple feeds. Step 2: Create an Azure Artifacts feed that uses upstream sources If you want to use packages from multiple feeds, use upstream sources to bring packages from multiple feeds together into a single feed. Step 3: Create a Micrtosoft Visual Studio project that includes all the packages Consume NuGet packages from upstream sources: Now you can open Visual Studio and install packages from the upstream sources you just configured.
