How do you keep track of what you have released in production?
- by systempuntoout
Tipically a deploy in production does not involve just a mere source code update (build) but requires a lot of other important tasks like for example:
Db scripts (tables, query..)
Configuration files (differents from test\production)
Batch to schedule
Executables to move to the correct path
Etc. etc.
In our company we just send an email to a "Release email address" describing the tasks in order, which changeset need to be published (TFS), which SP need to be updated, db scripts and so on.
I believe there's not a magic tool that does these tasks automagically in order, rollback included; but probably there's something better than email that helps to keep track of releases in production.
Do you have any tools to suggest or practices to share?
