One of the challenges with Scrum is how to fit QA into the process. Sure, QA works with the developers on each individual user story during the Sprint, but what about giving QA time with the fully completed sprint to do a full regression and load test before releasing into production?
I've seen 2 approaches:
- launch into production on the last day of the Sprint; or
- launch into production a week after the Sprint
Both approaches have their challenges so I'm wondering what most shops do that release every Sprint?
