Description

Summary of the new feature / enhancement

PSResourceGet tries to support multiple repositories, but only tests against some of them.

Add test instance of more repositories so one can make reliable additions and changes to PSResourceGet in regards to other repository systems. Like:

Else issues like #1491 will continue popping up.

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)
  • Microsoft owned stuff like Azure DevOps should be easy enough.
  • Ask 3rd parties to host public test instances?
  • Spin up and take down self hosted repositories as part of GitHub actions / workflows?
    • Will require some CI/CD engineering.
