Here's a handy checklist of items to run through before starting your upgrade:
- Ensure that @angular versions all match down to the last patch.
- Ensure your CI & CD pipeline is up and running with no failing or disabled tests.
- Smoke test your app before upgrading. Ensure that all major functionality works and there are no console errors or warning present.
- Address any quality issue discovered before upgrading.
- Follow the update guide sequentially and methodically.
- Be prepared to roll back the update.
