Agenda Development Process Definition What is Your Development Process? Rego Best Practices What Challenges to You See? 2 Clarity Educational Community
Development Process Definition The process by which configuration changes are requested, prioritized, approved, configured (design/build), tested, and released to production. 3 Clarity Educational Community
What Is Your Development Process? Do you have a set process? Do you have set schedule for releases? How do you determine what is being bundled for a release? Who approves changes to the Application? 4 Clarity Educational Community
