A release is a group of one or more files that are published as a unit.
Before creating a release, you must have a package into which your release will
go.
-
Click File Releases in the project navigation bar.
-
On the Package Summary page, click the title of the
package in which you want to create the release.
-
On the Package Details page, click
Add.
-
On the Create Release page, write a name and description
for the release.
-
Set the status of the release.
- Pending
- Releases with pending status are not visible in the drop-down lists
displayed when you set Reported In Release
and Fixed In Release fields in an artifact.
Use Pending status when you have created a
release but have not yet finished adding files.
- Active
- Releases with active status are visible in the drop-down lists
displayed when you set Reported In Release
and Fixed In Release fields in an
artifact.
-
Identify the maturity level of this release.
Use one of these predefined values:
- Development build
- Alpha
- Beta
- General availability
-
Click Save.
The release is created. You can begin adding files.
Tip: To facilitate
tracking, you may want to match this release to the planning folder that tracks the
work that's going into the release. If you do that, the relevant work items will
automatically appear on the
Planned Tracker Artifacts tab.
