| Fact | Azure Test Plans | Git Large File Storage |
|---|---|---|
| Integrations | Azure DevOps exposes integrations with GitHub, Docker, Slack, Sentry and more through its Marketplace extension ecosystem. | The project wiki lists Git LFS support for GitHub, GitHub Enterprise, GitLab, Azure DevOps, Bitbucket Cloud, and Bitbucket Server. |
| Purpose | Azure Test Plans provides planned manual and exploratory testing tools for apps. | Git LFS replaces large files in Git with text pointers and stores their contents on a remote server. |
| Security | Azure DevOps states that project data is protected in transit and at rest, uses the Microsoft Security Development Lifecycle and undergoes security penetration testing. | The project says releases are signed with an OpenPGP key of a core team member and provides signed hashes for verification. |
It suits teams that need to plan and trace manual, scripted, or exploratory app tests, particularly those using Azure Pipelines. Teams relying on cloud-based load testing should note that this service is deprecated.
Git LFS suits developers and teams whose repositories include large assets such as video, graphics, datasets, or audio. It is also relevant when repository access permissions should govern access to those files through a remote host.
