A pipeline is the flow of a deployment in ReleaseOps. A pipeline's flow is defined within playbooks, which enables you to customize as needed.

Scheduled and on-demand releases are how changes are deployed to target instances with ReleaseOps. Releases can contain one or more deployment requests.

Deployment requests contain one or more update sets, and are contained in a release.

Configure a new ReleaseOps ecosystem using the sample pipelines and playbooks to begin deploying changes from your development to test to production instances.

Create a custom pipeline to move changes through your production environment to testing by duplicating one of the ReleaseOps playbooks.

When you're ready to deploy your changes, promote your update set to begin the deployment process.

Create a deployment request for a scheduled release to contain your update set and enable your changes to move through the pipeline for deployment.

Specify the details for your release, including the target instance that the changes deploy to and when the release should occur.

Starting with version 1.2.1 of ReleaseOps, you can use guided setup to help simplify the initial configuration process.

Use guided setup to start using ReleaseOps quickly. You can also continue to use manual setup for more complex setup scenarios and if you need to add changes to your ReleaseOps ecosystems later.

Add custom, flexible, and manual activities to your assessment and release playbooks with runbook tasks, without having to adjust the structure of your playbooks from one release to the next.

Define the type of runbook task and when the task should occur in your ReleaseOps playbooks.

Leverage Automated Test Framework (ATF) code coverage in ReleaseOps. ATF code coverage enables you to determine what percentage of code in a deployment request is covered by ATF test suites.
