# Azure DevTest Labs

[Azure DevTest Labs](https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/services/devtest-lab?WT.mc_id=BA-MVP-5003976) is an Azure tool/service that allows us to **deploy virtual machines and integrate them with Azure DevOps pipelines**, and many other things, but what I’m going to explain is just the VM and pipeline part.

What will I show in this post? How to **prepare a Dynamics 365 Finance and Operations VHD image to be used as the base to create a build virtual machine from an Azure DevOps pipeline**, build our codebase, synchronize the DB, run tests, even deploy the reports, generate the deployable package and delete the VM.
