All Development-Lifecycle-and-Deployment-Architect Test Inside Salesforce Questions

The recommended mechanism for releasing the application that can be installed in the trading partners’ Salesforce environments is a managed package. A managed package is a collection of application components that can be distributed and installed in other orgs. Managed packages allow you to control the visibility and upgradability of the components, as well as provide namespace isolation and license management. Change sets are not suitable for releasing applications to other orgs, as they can only be used for orgs that are affiliated with the same production org. Unmanaged packages are not ideal for releasing applications that need to be updated frequently, as they do not allow you to push upgrades or control the components after installation. Zip file deployable by SFDX or ANT is not a user-friendly way of releasing applications, as it requires the users to have technical knowledge and tools to install the components.

 The success criteria for data migration and the manual and automated data validation approaches are two key areas of UC’s data migration test plan that should be included.

A citizen development program is a way of empowering non-technical users to create and deploy simple applications using low-code or no-code tools, such as Salesforce Platform. This can help UC leverage the skills and knowledge of their existing workforce, reduce the workload of the development team, and deliver value faster to the business.
