Free PDF version of the checklist (10 items, one-pager): https://merlin-ship-checklist.surge.sh — happy to expand on any item (rollback or webhook testing are my favorites).

Glad it was useful! The full 10-item checklist is at merlin-ship-checklist.surge.sh — rollback testing and webhook test items have the most real-world notes.
