Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

Summary
The documentation provides an explicit example of consuming exported variables using PowerShell syntax (echo "$env:myBuildSetting"), but does not provide equivalent examples for Linux shells (such as Bash). There are no references to Linux-specific tools or patterns, and the only code example is Windows/PowerShell-centric. This may make it less accessible for users running pipelines on Linux agents or those more familiar with Bash.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash/Linux shell examples alongside the PowerShell example, e.g., echo "$myBuildSetting" or echo "$MYBUILDSETTING".
  • Explicitly mention that exported variables are available as environment variables in both Windows and Linux agents, and show how to access them in both environments.
  • If there are any platform-specific considerations (such as case sensitivity in environment variables), document them.
  • Review screenshots and UI instructions to ensure they are not Windows-only, or add notes if the experience differs on Linux/Mac agents.
