Release Management
The management, planning, scheduling, and control of a full software build through every stage and environment involved, including testing and deploying software releases, is referred to as release management. It schedules relevant internal and external tasks, assigns the physical and human resources needed to complete them, and monitors their completion across a company. It starts with deciding what will be included in a release, then managing the software build as it progresses through various phases such as testing stability, and finally, deployment. Organizations risk wasting development timelines, underutilizing resources, and prioritizing the delivery of low-impact features if they don't have good release management.
