Cardano Wallet

This is the latest release checklist template that one needs to go through in order to check quality of the release

Prepare the release process

• Made a copy of the latest release Release-vYYYY-MM-DD documented as a new page on cardano-wallet's wiki called Release-vYYYY-MM-DD' and substituted the version number in the title and the links.
• Picked up the latest green commit from the release pipeline and prove it's green by linking the successful GitHub Actions builds here.
  • release pipeline build
  • check for performance regressions on the release commit artifacts:
  • check that the restoration benchmarks ran
• Unblock the release blocked on release pipeline build

Update the release page

• Fix the release note on the draft release automatically created by the release pipeline https://github.com/cardano-foundation/cardano-wallet/releases

Check out the docker image is on the docker hub

• link: https://hub.docker.com/r/cardanofoundation/cardano-wallet/tags
• Report the link in the release notes link to docker hub

Check sensitive fields in the API

• Verify that sensitive fields listed in Cardano/Wallet/Api/Server are still accurate and aren't missing any new ones.

  sensitive =
      [ "passphrase"
      , "old_passphrase"
      , "new_passphrase"
      , "mnemonic_sentence"
      , "mnemonic_second_factor"
      ]
  

• Check out the documentation has been published by the github action

Publication

• Once two engineers have signed off, publish the release draft.

• Merge the (administrative) commits created for the release tag back into the master branch.

• Remember to leave this checklist in an up-to-date status for the next releaser
