Bias Analysis

Bias Types:
⚠️ powershell_heavy
⚠️ windows_tools
⚠️ windows_first
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, primarily through the frequent use of PowerShell and Windows-centric tools (e.g., AzPowerShell, AzureCLI with PowerShell Core, dotnet CLI) in both GitHub Actions and Azure Pipelines examples. PowerShell-based commands and terminology (e.g., 'enableAzPSSession', 'PowerShell@2', 'pscore') are used throughout, and the CLI snippets for running Playwright tests use PowerShell syntax. While the workflows run on Ubuntu runners and npm/node commands are cross-platform, the documentation does not provide explicit Linux shell (bash/sh) equivalents or highlight Linux-native patterns, and Windows/PowerShell tools are often mentioned first or exclusively.
Recommendations:
  • Provide Linux shell (bash/sh) equivalents for all PowerShell commands and scripts, especially for npm install, Playwright test execution, and authentication steps.
  • Where PowerShell is used in workflow tasks (e.g., AzureCLI@2 with 'pscore', PowerShell@2), also show how to use bash or sh scripts for the same steps.
  • Avoid using PowerShell-specific flags (like 'enableAzPSSession') in examples unless necessary, or clarify their cross-platform applicability.
  • Explicitly mention that all commands and workflows are cross-platform, and highlight any differences or additional steps needed for Linux environments.
  • In code snippets and CLI instructions, provide both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (bash) command formats where applicable.
  • If using .NET examples (which are cross-platform), clarify that the commands work on Linux/macOS as well, and provide any OS-specific notes if needed.
