[FIXED] Automated UI tests on safari with Azure DevOps ##[error]The current operating system is not capable of running this task

Issue

I need to automate some UI webtest with safari on Azure DevOps and was wondering if anyone knows how to do it?

i found out that the VSBuild on azure devops does not work on macos VM's. So are there any known solutions to this problem?

Solution

Visual Studio Build task is only supported on agents running Windows: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/tasks/build/visual-studio-build?view=azure-devops

For MacOS, you could use "MS build" and "dotnet build" for the build task, and test with "dotnet test" task.
