Sketch out release engineering processes #321

Open neilmb opened 3 years ago

neilmb commented 3 years ago

Background

We need an understanding of what testing, development, staging, and production environments we will need and how changes will flow through those environments and get code-reviewed, approved by the product owner, and deployed in the production environment.

We'll know we're done when...

[ ] We have a document describing how changes make their way to production
[ ] We have started the process about getting those corresponding environments set up in FS AWS

Tasks

[ ] Write a proposed process document on the Wiki
[ ] Get feedback either synchronously or asynchronously and finish a revision

This should include conversations with ISSO (Hieu Nguyen) about what approval process is going to be required for releasing into the real production environment.

Noting here: we're momentarily using Claudia.js for Lambda deployment, for local & sandbox work. I expect that Claudia will be used only temporarily, to be superseded by Terraform, Ansible, or something equivalent once we stand that up as part of this work.

Here's the Wiki page on the Release Engineering Process. I've added the QASP chart and the code quality metric, and added implementation details/status.

Very much a first draft, so please edit/comment, and there's a bit of work to do to get the pipeline fully implemented.

First draft of dev -> staging -> prod is in Mural here. Lots to discuss, figure out, and edit.

Moved to Waiting: waiting for project pivot work to finish before picking this up.
