Production Release Criteria

Note that this twiki contains a draft version of the Production Release Criteria to be approved by PEB.

Introduction

The Producton Release criteria defines the minimum set of criteria considered to be essential in a component release scheduled for production. The criteria will be checked by QC who will write a QC report informing about the compliance with the criteria. This check takes place once the component release has been certified by the PT as described in the Change Management Policy. The Production release criteria may change throughout the lifetime of the project. Changes will be agreed with PEB and QC, and announced to PTs.

QC Verification Report

The acceptance criteria is checked by QC for every certified component release. The review of the acceptance criteria is reported in the QC report. A template can be found below.

Change Management Criteria

Every component release must be tracked in a Component Release task created by the release manager in the EMI release tracker. PTs must fill in the remaining fields not provided by the release manager.

All the changes included in the component release must be tracked in an RfC in the PT tracking tool and attached to the Component Release task.

The details of Component Release tasks and RfCs can be found in the Change Management Policy.
