Process Overview
================

Open Telekom Cloud Terraform Provider is developed by Ecosystem squad and it's open-sourced on Github at https://github.com/opentelekomcloud/terraform-provider-opentelekomcloud/

Issues or new feature requests are addressed by filling an issue on the Github repository under https://github.com/opentelekomcloud/terraform-provider-opentelekomcloud/issues

Prerequistes for new demands
============================

 - Service or feature must be released on PROD environment
 - Documentation for service or feature must be released on public HelpCenter portal
 - Functional testing must be completed by QA engineer in the service squad
 - Regression testing must exist and reports must be available

 .. warning::
    Ecosystem Squad is not relying on pre-PROD nor checking features on pre-PROD therefore make sure that demanded feature has been released to PROD already.

Once the prerequistes are met and issue is created on github repository, Ecosystem squad needs several days or weeks based on the complexity of the new demand to accomplish the task.

To avoid delays caused by not enough resources, the new demands should be identified and addressed upfront during PIP planning by the service squads or product management.

The accomplished demands result in new OTC Terraform provider release available at https://registry.terraform.io/providers/opentelekomcloud/opentelekomcloud/latest. The release notes describe the changes at https://registry.terraform.io/providers/opentelekomcloud/opentelekomcloud/latest
