Configure TFS-Azure deployment to use "Release" for build

Question

I'm checking in projects to TFS, to be deployed to the Azure host.

I want the project(s) to be built and deployed as "Release", not "Debug".

I put this code in my Application_Start:

#if DEBUG 
      throw new System.Exception("An Exception!");
#endif

And the exception is thrown, how do I set the TFS builds to be 'Release'?

When you select Items To Build in your build definition you can specify the configuration(s) you want built.
