AZ400-Q: promote a tested package
A package passes CI but must not be consumed by production until release approval. Developers still need to test it. Which approach is best?
- A) Overwrite the previous production package.
- B) Publish it only to a developer’s laptop.
- C) Use one unstructured feed and ask consumers to guess.
- D) Publish an immutable prerelease version, validate it, then promote/allow it through the approved release view or feed policy. ✓
Answer: D. Immutable versions plus feed/view promotion distinguish candidate consumption from approved production consumption.
Why not the others: Overwrite/local/unstructured approaches lose reproducibility and policy.
