All Jira tickets should be created with the following info:

  1. Short description of module functionality (if necessary)
  2. Image preview of the module design
  3. Links for references (if necessary)

# QA (External provider)

All the issues detected during this stage should be tackled as soon as possible by the dev team and tagged as QA issues (or similar) on Jira for further metrics.

The production release should be prepared as minimum 2 or 3 days before the release date, this means that every detail like domain owner and setup, infrastructure setup, S3 bucket setup, etc… are tested and prepared for the release. The client should know the last day to do content updates on the staging site to prevent data lost during the release.

# Post Released
