Testing Procedure

The diagram below shows the general release cycle for Optinex. A product increment contains 3 sprints, each sprint 3 weeks long.
At the end of a product increment, a new release candidate is created, and after quality is assured by ForestX and customer testing, it is pushed to the production environment.

Below is also a table with the actual release plan for the upcoming Product Increments.
