Validate-only/Quick Deploy in non-bundled stages #89

Open GilsonCanario opened 1 year ago

GilsonCanario commented 1 year ago

As of the GA release (Dec'22) users can run Validate-only, then subsequent Quick Deploys from DevOps Center, but only in bundled stages. This roadmap item is to add support for this functionality in non-bundled stages

It would be a solution since to be able to run Validate-only in production, it is necessary to have two previous stages as bundled stages. You cannot run Validate-only in production if only the pre-production stage is a bundled stage. This is a problem since you have to define which WIs that are included in the release several previous stages.

This is actually a real pain and it's also not explained at all. What is the reason only a versioned stage can run validations? It either forces you to add an extra (not needed) versioned stage, use GitHub actions or manual way of validating, or live with the fact that you will never do quick deploys from the interface. Can we get a better explanation regarding why it is designed this way?
