Answer from AI
The release process at my last job was organized as follows:
-
Development and Testing: All new features and bug fixes were developed in separate Git branches. After completion, the branch was merged into the main development branch (develop).
-
Integration Testing: The develop branch was regularly built and underwent automated tests, as well as manual testing on test devices.
-
Release Preparation: When the set of changes was ready for release, a release branch was created, where final checks and minor bug fixes were performed.
-
Build and Publication: After approval of the release branch, a final build (APK or AAB) was created and published to Google Play through the developer console, with version and change description.
-
Versioning: Semantic versioning was used (major.minor.patch), where:
- major — major changes,
- minor — new features,
- patch — bug fixes.
-
Monitoring: After the release, user feedback and stability metrics were monitored to promptly respond to issues.
This process allowed maintaining application stability and regularly releasing updates with new features.
