Release Check List

Here is a list of things we need to do/test before putting a new release on the site:

  • Check that the main menu option Help->Version lists the correct application and component versions.
  • Check that the release notes are complete.
  • Check that the online help associated with each component is correct and that it has been versioned using the same version as the one of the component.
  • Verify builds for all platforms by installing/running them in "virgin" environments.
  • Check that the technical documentation associated with each compoenent is up to date and that it has been versioned using the same version as the one of the component.

Requirements To Consider

  • All gew components should implement the interface WorkbenchPlugin which defines a number of methods such as:
    • String getLabInfo(): returns information about the lab where the component originated from.
    • String getLicenseInfo(): returns license information.
    • String getLibraries(): returns information about 3rd party libraries (with approrpiate attribution).
    • VersionInfo getVersion(): returns the version of the component.
  • Modify VisualPlugin::getComponent() to return an object of type WorkbenchVisualComponent that extends Component and provides ways to display originating Lab, licence info, libraries and version.

Misc

  • Setup nightly build.
