Release Process

This release process applies to all Test Kitchen projects, but each project may have additional requirements.

  1. Perform a GitHub diff between main and the last released version. Determine whether included PRs justify a patch, minor or major version release.
  2. Check out the main branch of the project being prepared for release.
  3. Branch into a release-branch of the form 150_release_prep.
  4. Modify the version.rb file to specify the version for releasing.
  5. Run rake changelog to regenerate the changelog.
  6. git commit the version.rb and CHANGELOG.md changes to the branch and setup a PR for them. Allow the PR to run any automated tests and review the CHANGELOG for accuracy.
  7. Merge the PR to main after review.
  8. Switch your local copy to the main branch and git pull to pull in the release preparation changes.
  9. Run rake release on the main branch.
  10. Modify the version.rb file and bump the patch or minor version, and commit/push.
