 ## How to use this guide
 The `azure-pipelines.yml` build pipeline definition has variables set up to do a full release on the `101-boilerplate` blueprint. If you want to test a different blueprint, change the varaibles at the top of that file and [change your parameters and test environment](#to-configure-your-release-test) accordingly

 This does steps 3 and 4 above. You can choose to run this in a build pipeline or a release pipeline. If you are solely validating that the blueprint is working as expected, I recommend keeping it in build. If you are planning to do a rollout of a blueprint to dev -> QA -> pre-prod -> prod (or some equivalent), I would recommend using Release Pipelines and using some sort of validation between each release stage.

-Each blueprint will have it's own parameters and their own "expected state" for what the environment should look like when it is applied. You will need to update lines `61` to `65` based on the parameters of the blueprint, and you will need to also account for what the test environment looks like between lines `50` and `56`
