Finding agent capabilities

To find the capabilities that are available on the individual agents, go through the following steps:

1. Navigate to Organization Settings | Agent pools:

2. Navigate to the correct agent pool (either hosted or private) and then Agents, and then open the agent details (not shown in the preceding screenshot).
3. Open the Capabilities tab.

Here, you can specify one or more custom capabilities for the agent using the top block, called User-defined capabilities. For self-hosted (private) agents, all the capabilities that were discovered on the machine when you installed the agent are also shown.

Azure DevOps is not the only tool available for running continuous integration builds. The next section will take you through a couple of other tools.
