Release Planning Checklist

The Release Planning Checklist is a tool used to help plan and track the progress of software releases. It is typically used at the beginning of a project to define the software release schedule, timeline, and resources. It allows teams to identify tasks, assess risks, and create a timeline for development, testing, and deployment. The checklist includes items such as identifying the target user or customer, analyzing the existing software requirements, and creating a plan for development and release. Additionally, it provides a framework for evaluating the success of the release and helps ensure that all tasks are completed on time and within budget.
