I've had a chance to try out the App Fabric emulator that comes with Visual Studio so I can run my applications locally.

After getting my first "Hello World" Azure function running locally on my dev box I see there was an option for Storage emulation.

I was hoping that Visual Studio has some similar features for emulating Azure Authentication/Authorization locally.

Now previously I have downloaded and configured KONG on my dev box that that was independent of Visual Studio and Azure but I was hoping there were some features in Visual Studio to make this easier).

Does Visual Studio have any Authorization/Authentication features to emulate Azure Active Directory or any of the Azure plugins like KONG that will allow me to easily test out my Azure Function and my chosen Authentication/Authorization plugin (like Azure Active Directory or KONG) and easily (seamlessly!) publish to Azure with the Visual Studio publish button after I get it working locally? This would be nice because I want to try several of them out before I publish to Azure.

If not, what are my options? What do other developers do? Do they typically develop the application locally (in my case, Azure CRUD functions) and then configure the authentication/authorization after they publish to Azure?

Thanks

Siegfried
