Solve code coverage issue with Azure Functions

 I tried to execute code coverage for an Azure Function project with the Coverlet NuGet package. When running the unit test phase I received the following error message and no code coverage file was generated for the Azure Function project.

Data collector 'XPlat code coverage' message: [coverlet]System.TypeLoadException: Could not load type 'Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.ServiceCollection' from assembly 'Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions, Version=5.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=adb9793829ddae60'.

   at Coverlet.Collector.DataCollection.CoverletCoverageCollector.GetDefaultServiceCollection(TestPlatformEqtTrace eqtTrace, TestPlatformLogger logger, String testModule)

   at Coverlet.Collector.DataCollection.CoverletCoverageCollector.OnSessionStart(Object sender, SessionStartEventArgs sessionStartEventArgs) in /_/src/coverlet.collector/DataCollection/CoverletCoverageCollector.cs:line 135.

To solve this issue you have to add the Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyInjection.Abstractions NuGet package to the unit test project which references the Azure Function project. When this reference is added the code coverage file will be generated.

CS8357: The specified version string contains wildcards, which are not compatible with determinism.

Today I was busy with creating a WCF service solution in Visual Studio Enterprise 2017 (15.9.2). In this solution I use a few C# class libraries based on .NET 4.7.2. When I compiled the solution I got this error message: Error CS8357: The specified version string contains wildcards, which are not compatible with determinism. Either remove wildcards from the version string, or disable determinism for this compilation The error message is linking to my AssemblyInfo.cs file of the Class library projects. In all the projects of this solution I use the wildcard notation for generating build and revision numbers. // Version information for an assembly consists of the following four values: // // Major Version // Minor Version // Build Number // Revision // // You can specify all the values or you can default the Build and Revision Numbers // by using the '*' as shown below: // [assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.*")] [assembly: AssemblyVersion("1.0.

Fixing HTTP Error 401.2 unauthorized on local IIS

Sometimes the Windows Authentication got broken on IIS servers so you cannot log in locally on the server. In that case you get the dreadfully error message HTTP Error 401.2 - Unauthorized You are not authorized to view this page due to invalid authentication headers. To fix this issue you can repair the Windows Authentication feature with the following PowerShell commands: Remove-WindowsFeature Web-Windows-Auth Add-WindowsFeature Web-Windows-Auth

Make steps conditional in multi-stage YAML pipelines

To make the switch from the graphical release pipelines in Azure DevOps I am missing two features. The first one is to be able to defer a deploy and the second one is to exclude certain deployment steps without the need for editing the YAML file.  The defer option is something Microsoft has to solve in their Azure DevOps proposition. It's a feature which you have in the graphical release pipeline but what they have not implemented yet in their YAML pipeline replacement. Approvals and certain gate conditions are implemented on the environment but the defer option is still missing .  Pipeline The conditional deployment option can be implemented with the help of runtime parameters and expressions . In the parameter section you define boolean parameters which will control the deploy behavior. With the expressions you can control which stage/job/task should be executed when the pipeline runs. In the below YAML sample I experimented with conditions in the azure-pipelines.yml  file
