QA hardening: release readiness gates most teams skip
A governed QA approach: regression checks, performance verification, and production readiness—so you ship without surprises.
Why QA at the end fails
QA is not a phase; it’s a gate enforced at the right milestones.
Late QA increases rework and causes fragile releases.
The hardening checklist that matters
Regression pass complete.
Performance verified (CWV where applicable).
Security baseline validated (RBAC, sessions, audit logs).
Rollback plan prepared.
Operational readiness
Monitoring hooks, error logging, and ownership runbooks are part of the handover—not optional.
