blog-posts Posted November 3, 2020 Share Posted November 3, 2020 We are really happy to announce that we are very close to finishing the 1.7.7.0 release, the release candidate is the last step before the final version is out. This release candidate aims at making sure that all major regressions found during the beta have been fixed, and that no new ones have been spotted. If no new critical or major regression is reported by November 17th, we will make the final version of 1.7.7.0 available. Please note that it is not currently possible to perform an automatic upgrade from the Beta to the Release Candidate. Furthermore, it will not be possible to upgrade from this Release Candidate to the final release. If you perform an update of your test store to the RC version, you will need to rollback to your current version before being able to upgrade to the final 1.7.7.0. Please download, install and test this new version of PrestaShop and give us your feedback as early as possible. The later a problem is identified, the more time it takes to be fixed, and this delays the final release. If you find regressions compared to the 1.7.6 version, please open an issue and describe it on Github so that it can be reproduced and fixed as soon as possible. Remember, this release candidate version is pre release software. Do not use it on your production shop!

Automated Tests The 1.7.7 version is by far the most tested version ever released by PrestaShop, this ensures its stability and prevents future regressions that could be created by future developments.

How to help finish the 1.7.7 Your feedback on this RC is essential, the regressions you find right now are as many bugs less on the final version and less patch versions. It also means fewer problems on your (or your customer’s) online store. You must: Install it and test that there is no regression compared to the 1.7.6 version If you develop modules or themes, test them on this version Test the auto-upgrade plugin Report regressions on GitHub (read how to report issues) Fix regressions by creating a pull request (read the contribution guidelines) If everything is working well, feel free to comment on this article to tell us, and share on social networks, we also need this kind of feedback! ;-) Acknowledgments A huge thanks to everyone who got involved by reporting, testing and fixing regressions during the first beta phase.
