Install program on Azure Pipelines

Question

so I've got some CI set up with Azure Pipelines, everything is nice, except I'd like to add some checks for memory errors, as I have on Travis currently. In Travis, I can write:

addons:
  apt:
    packages:
- valgrind

and it will install valgrind for me. I've been unable to find the equivalent feature on Azure Pipelines, but there has to be a way to do this.

I've searched through their docs in vain already, any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

In a script task, you can just run the required commands yourself. Looks like you're using a Hosted Ubuntu agent.

- script: |
  sudo apt-get install -qq -y valgrind
  valgrind

(written without syntax validation, you may need to tweak this a little).

Similar to how I installed all required dependencies for Cypress on the Hosted Agent.
