FAQPage Schema
How do I handle an emergency production deployment for a critical bug fix?▼

An emergency production deployment for a critical bug fix requires bypassing standard sprint cycles to create a dedicated hotfix branch, track necessary approvals, and ensure proper backporting while maintaining a full audit trail.

What is the process for backporting an S1 hotfix branch?▼

Backporting an S1 hotfix branch involves creating a rapid emergency fix that bypasses normal processes, tracking specific approvals from lead-programmer, qa-tester, and producer roles, and correctly merging the documented fix back into the main codebase.

Can I deploy a rapid rollback for an S2 severity bug without waiting for the next release?▼

Yes, you can deploy a rapid rollback or fix for an S2 severity bug by initiating an emergency release workflow that bypasses standard development cycles, requiring specific documented approvals to deploy immediately.

Who needs to approve a code review for an emergency release?▼

A code review for an emergency release requires specific approvals tracked within the audit trail from a lead-programmer, a qa-tester, and a producer to ensure the hotfix is verified before production deployment.

When should I use an emergency fix workflow instead of a standard sprint process?▼

You should use an emergency fix workflow instead of a standard sprint process when critical S1 or major S2 bugs are discovered, requiring immediate documented deployment to production environments without waiting for scheduled releases.
