RC candidate for the next Mojaloop release (post v15.1.0)

[elnyry-sam-k]

Goal:

As a ML OSS adopter

I want to have an Release Candidate for a post ML v15.1.0 that is successfully validated by the Golden path tests and ready for a release

so that I can start the validation processes prior to adopting the release based on this RC

Acceptance Criteria:

• [x] Confirm the version number of the next Mojaloop release based on the changes included
• [x] Helm RC Release is validated on Moja2 to achieve 100% result with TTK GoldenPath
• [x] Helm RC Release is validated with PISP provisioning and test collection (TTK) with 100%
• [x] Helm RC Release is validated with Bulk test collection (TTK) with 100%
• [x] QA (Golden path) on deployments done on AWS Moja2 environment is done
• [x] Bugs are logged based on observations, failures
• [x] Bugs logged are fixed if critical / blockers to make subsequent releases in individual services (or Helm)
• [x] Release notes are drafted (to be published with the helm release)
• [x] Test cases on a RC branch are created and validated
• [x] TTK tests run successfully as Post-Hook jobs and Tests

Notes:

• This story is for creating a stable Release Candidate based on which the release will be made

Complexity: Medium - Involves all core and supporting services Uncertainty: Medium

Thanks for this @oderayi , third-party sdk should have a new release.

this story is closed: https://github.com/mojaloop/project/issues/3522 and the PR is merged as well, so I'm not sure why the release didn't happen; does the CI config need to be updated?

[oderayi]

Thanks for pointing that out @elnyry-sam-k. Looks like the release didn't go through after the merge. I will look into this.

[elnyry-sam-k]

thanks @oderayi , appreciate it.
