Optional noteÂ
Set the "/p:StyleCopTreatErrorsAsWarnings=false" (without quotes) parameter in your build definition to throw an error when there is a StyleCop warning. This works if you have the NuGet StyleCop.MSBuild package installed. This way your build will fail so no corrupt code is checked-in. This check-in policy prevents users from checking-in bad code but it is a check-in policy so it could be overridden. You can set this parameter in your build definition on the "Process" tab, under the "Advanced" category and then the "MSBuild Arguments" property.
