Conduct Release Planning – Part 6
What is Release Planning?
Release planning refers to the creation of a release roadmap. This roadmap consists of a list of requirements, and details of when these requirements will tentatively be finished and released to stakeholders. The release plan is far from definitive. Priorities change, stakeholders may request new features that are a higher priority than existing items in the product backlog, and events may occur that results in the elevation of a lower priority item to a high priority requirement. However, the release plan serves as a tentative and relative list of when features should be added to the product.
What Determines the Release Guideline?
The release plan spans the entire project, and there are several contributors to it. One of the most important contributors in creating the release plan is the developers. On a scrum team, developers possess the unique knowledge and qualifications to complete the project. This knowledge equips them to determine the number of key components of the release plan.
Delivering Value to Stakeholders
The main aim of the release plan is within the structuring of the delivery of value to the stakeholders. A scrum team seeks to deliver the most valuable features to the stakeholders first, and continue to develop the highest value requirements in every subsequent sprint. The release plan allows the scrum team to map out where the value comes from, and to schedule when it should be finished.
