Release

[ri-lees]

Definition of Release

A movement of the Team’s Deliverable Results from the development environment to some other environment, for some other reason than development. Examples include alpha releases, beta releases, go-live releases, releases to a test lab, and so on. Releases are not a part of Scrum; releasing product must be done with Stories – there is no ‘release’ ceremony in Scrum.

Examples

After completing the last bit of work on our product, we were able to Release our new software at the end of the Sprint.

They say Google does 20,000 Releases a day; they release their Code into production as part of their Development Process.
