Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively providing a Windows Server 2019 Datacenter VM example when guiding users to create a lab VM. There are no Linux VM examples, nor is there mention of Linux images or instructions for Linux-specific configurations. The tutorial implicitly prioritizes Windows by not presenting Linux as an option or alternative.
Recommendations
  • Include examples for creating Linux-based VMs (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) alongside Windows examples.
  • Explicitly mention that both Windows and Linux images are available and supported in Azure DevTest Labs.
  • Provide instructions or screenshots for Linux VM setup, including relevant differences (e.g., SSH key authentication instead of password).
  • Add notes or tips for Linux-specific configurations, such as artifact installation or remote access methods.
  • Ensure parity in documentation by alternating or balancing Windows and Linux examples throughout the tutorial.
