2 Standard Salesforce Development Lifecycle* - answer
3 What is Devops? - answer DevOps is a combination of practices that
automate and enable greater effectiveness in the process of building and
running software. DevOps combines the technical practices of Continuous
Delivery with the business practices of lean management and lean product
development.
4 What are the main Challenges in Salesforce Development Lifecycle? -
answer The first thing you encounter is that there's not a clear overview
of the whole process. You may have these questions
Where do changes happen?
Should I start in dev1, or can I implement my changes directly in
production?
Which environment do I need to deploy first?
Is it UAT or Integration?
Who is going to approve my changes?
5 what are the limitations of the change sets? - answer Change Sets
Limitations - Companies spend a lot of time building change sets. Here are
some of the limitations of change sets that you should know:
1.Change sets do not offer the capability to search components by name
or type. As a developer, you are forced to browse through multiple pages
to find the metadata items you want to select.
2.If you accidentally add a component, you cannot filter within your
selections to remove the component quickly.
,3.Certain components are not available to be deployed using change sets,
and it's possible to move changes only across environments that are
connected.
4.With change sets, all selected components come in a single list, so you
can't scope which modification is based on which request
5. Change sets do not enable continuous delivery, and automation of
deployments is not an easy task
6 What are the difficulties Keeping Environments in Sync? - answer
Release teams struggle with sandbox syncing after deploying to higher
environments. For example, if a company uses a hotfix sandbox to develop
and push fixes to production, lower environments will show discrepancies
regarding the production environment. These differences can lead to
deployment errors and a blocked pipeline. Even having multiple developer
environments requires users to keep those environments in sync.
7 What are the Problems arise if we refresh the sandboxes.? - answer 1.
Metadata loss. All the work in progress in a sandbox will be overwritten
after the refresh.
2. Full sandboxes can only be refreshed once per month, therefore they
can't easily receive changes that were sent from a hotfix environment to
production.
3. Scrambled emails. Whenever a sandbox is refreshed, user email
addresses are modified in the sandbox so that production users don't
receive automatically generated email messages from the sandbox.
Hence, users are required to validate an email address change in order to
be able to log in again into the sandbox. 4.Data loss. Unless you're
refreshing a full sandbox or a partial copy, you will lose all data. Hence,
you need to recreate the test data all over again.
8 What happens If multiple Developers working on the same components?
- answer "There is a major issue when multiple developers work in the
same environment and perform changes in the same components. As
mentioned in the Change Sets Limitations section, when you work with
change sets, you have no visibility on who has made what changes, and
there are no tools for you to foresee if your changes will be overwritten.
9 Why salesforce Deployment is Difficulty for the teams to collaborate? -
answer Salesforce makes it amazingly easy for individuals to build
changes but it was not made with collaborations of large teams in mind.
,As your team grows, you may find it challenging to collaborate.
Synchronizing environments, tracking the history, and being unable to
merge changes on a line-by-line basis is difficult, so you are reducing your
team's possibilities to collaborate and work together.
10 Is there any Standard tool provided by Salesforce for the deployment
Process? - answer Salesforce does not provide a definitive
recommendation on how to manage the release process and doesn't
include native Agile tools and metrics.
11 Salesforce provide Quality Checks on Changes? - answer Salesforce
provide only limited set of Quality Checks.
12 what is the built in Salesforce Quality Check ? - answer Apex tests are
the only built-in Salesforce capability that ensures the quality of your
customizations. Apex tests can identify specific errors, but they are not
meant to identify code inefficiencies and bad habits before they become a
problem.
13 How the company Make sure the quality of code? - answer "There are
also many other types of tests that go beyond what Apex alone offers and
can help ensure the quality of your team's work. To keep their code
optimized, companies have to make further efforts in defining and
implementing a code inspection process.

about the changes to be implemented by developers. In Copado, it also
holds the metadata related to those changes.
