Before getting your hands on all the goods, there are some logistics you have to take care of first. You will need Visual Studio Team Services (VSTS), which is where all of your processes will start from. VSTS also consolidates your results into one convenient and clear overview for you.
If you already have a VSTS account, you can use that one. If you do not have one, you will find out how to set one up in this chapter. While some other accounts may be necessary, you will set them up in later chapters when necessary.
