Release Documentation Checklist

The Release Documentation Checklist is used to ensure that all necessary documentation is collected and organized for a software release. It should contain items such as end-user documentation, release notes, installation instructions, and hardware/software requirements. Additionally, the checklist should include items such as test cases, test results, database scripts, and other necessary technical documents. It should also include a list of any known issues, any risks associated with the release, and any other pertinent information. The checklist should be reviewed and updated prior to each release.
