Azure DevOps Engineer Exam: Question 21

Azure Pipelines: Mastering Stage Order! 🚀 #shorts Goal: Ensure your Production stage triggers automatically—but only after the Test stage succeeds. The Solution: dependsOn 🎯 - The Winner: Use the dependsOn property in your YAML stage definition. - The Logic: It creates a functional link where ""Stage B"" waits for ""Stage A"" to finish with a Succeeded status. Why not others? Manual approvals stop automation, standalone pipelines lack native tracking, and parallel jobs run simultaneously, breaking your deployment flow. Exam Tip: For AZ-400, ""sequential stages"" or ""success dependencies"" = dependsOn. 🛠️ #AZ400 #AzureDevOps #YAML #CI/CD #PipelineAutomation #DevOps #TechTips #KodeKloud
