Azure Devops, Azure, YAML, Conditional Tasks

https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/devops/pipelines/process/conditions?view=azure-devops&tabs=yaml

When we specify Condition, we actually make the execution of step conditional to the outcome of execution of previous step.

You can specify conditions under which a step, job, or stage will run.

• Only when all previous dependencies have succeeded. This is the default if there is not a condition set in the YAML.

• Even if a previous dependency has failed, unless the run was canceled. Use succeededOrFailed() in the YAML for this condition.

• Even if a previous dependency has failed, even if the run was canceled. Use always() in the YAML for this condition.

• Only when a previous dependency has failed. Use failed() in the YAML for this condition.

• Custom conditions
