Automated creation of release notes

Does anyone have experience in an automated creation of release notes? We already have automated nightly builds and regression tests of C++ and Python software, but we do not yet create our releases automatically.
If releases are either bug fix releases or feature releases (containing both bug fixes and enhancements), then the former would be the easiest to do: create a list of all the issues resolved between the previous release date and the current date.
For feature releases it is a little more complicated, because we do not have a well structured repository of feature requests yet.
So are there any suggested best practices that will help us create release notes automatically for in particular feature releases?
 
Dist::Zilla::App::Command::test(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		      Dist::Zilla::App::Command::test(3pm)

NAME
Dist::Zilla::App::Command::test - test your dist VERSION
version 4.300020 SYNOPSIS
dzil test [ --release ] [ --no-author ] [ --automated ] [ --all ] DESCRIPTION
This command is a thin wrapper around the test method in Dist::Zilla. It builds your dist and runs the tests with the AUTHOR_TESTING environment variable turned on, so it's like doing this: export AUTHOR_TESTING=1 dzil build --no-tgz cd $BUILD_DIRECTORY perl Makefile.PL make make test A build that fails tests will be left behind for analysis, and dzil will exit a non-zero value. If the tests are successful, the build directory will be removed and dzil will exit with status 0. OPTIONS
--release This will run the test suite with RELEASE_TESTING=1 --automated This will run the test suite with AUTOMATED_TESTING=1 --no-author This will run the test suite without setting AUTHOR_TESTING --all Equivalent to --release --automated --author AUTHOR
