Question

I am starting to deploy my desktop application. It is a syntax highlighting notepad. I am considering deploying it on the web. What is like a list of things that I should do before I deploy my application?

Answer 1

Before you deploy an application. On the top of my head (some of what we do before each release)

1. Test it 🙂
2. Test it on a clean PC. What happens it it does not have .NET installed?
3. Test it as a standard user (not everyone is an administrator)
4. “Polish”. Use a consistent version on all files (important for later upgrades)
5. Make sure that licenses, copyright messages are correct. That the year is correct etc.
