Pass the Salesforce Salesforce Developer Development-Lifecycle-and-Deployment-Architect Questions and answers with CertsForce

The testing of the JavaScript part of the Aura component can be tested in the Jest framework and the Apex controllers can be tested using test classes. The testing can be viewed in the lightning.force.com/c/jasminetests.app URL. The page loads and runs Jasmine test and writes pass/fail information to the screen. The Lightning test service AppExchange package is not required for testing Aura components, but for testing Lightning web components. The $T test helper object is not a valid object for testing Lightning components.

 D is the correct answer, as the risk with this plan is that multiple work-streams with dependencies could impact the go-live. If the legacy system upgrade and the new integration are not aligned and coordinated, there could be delays, errors, or failures in the project delivery. A is incorrect, as the deadline being scheduled during a Salesforce release is not a risk, but an opportunity to leverage the new features and enhancements that Salesforce provides. B is incorrect, as the project team using the Waterfall methodology is not a risk, but a choice that depends on the project scope, complexity, and requirements. C is incorrect, as the legacy system team using an Agile methodology is not a risk, but a choice that depends on the project scope, complexity, and requirements. You can learn more about the risk management in the Project Management Strategies for Salesforce Implementations module on Trailhead.

Active Process Builders are configuration items that should be covered by executable tests, as they can have complex logic and actions that affect the behavior and performance of the application. Validation Rules, Workflow Rules, and Case Assignment Rules are also configuration items, but they are simpler and less likely to cause errors or conflicts. Therefore, they can be verified by manual testing or declarative tools.

 The best release strategy for creating a new report to support an urgent client request is to utilize the daily release process. The daily release process is designed for small and quick changes that do not require extensive testing or approval. The daily release process can create the report directly in a full sandbox and then deploy it to production. The major and minor release processes are more suitable for large and complex changes that require more testing and approval. The major and minor release processes should not create the report directly in production, as this may cause errors or conflicts.

 In the post refresh plan, modifying external ids to a known valid set of values for UAT is the best way to resolve the issue of objects that have external ids from production no longer pointing to valid external ids in the UAT environment. This way, the data integrity and consistency across the integrated systems can be maintained. Letting UAT point to production integrations and rolling back each transaction after it finishes is not a good practice, as it can cause data loss or corruption in production. Deleting all the data and using an automated testing tool to create new data across all the systems in UAT is not feasible, as it can take a lot of time and resources. Masking the external id so nobody can see the production value is not a solution, as it does not address the underlying problem of invalid references.

 Automated browser testing and static code quality analysis are two quality assurance techniques that can help minimize defects in software projects, and that an architect should recommend for Universal Containers to incorporate into its overall CI/CD pipeline. Automated browser testing is a technique that involves using tools or frameworks to simulate user interactions with the web application across different browsers and devices, and to verify the functionality and performance of the application. Static code quality analysis is a technique that involves using tools or frameworks to scan the code and detect any violations of the predefined coding rules and best practices, such as syntax errors, security issues, code smells, etc. Business verification testing and stress testing are also quality assurance techniques, but they are not as suitable or relevant for the CI/CD pipeline, as they are more focused on validating the business requirements and the system capacity.

 Creating design standards to require help text on all custom fields and custom objects is an option that an Architect should recommend, as it helps to provide context and guidance for the administrators and users on how the fields and objects are used and what they mean. Creating design standards to consistently use the description field on custom fields is also an option that an Architect should recommend, as it helps to document the purpose and function of the fields and make them easier to maintain and understand. Creating design standards to consistently use the description field on custom objects is not an option that an Architect should recommend, as it is not a mandatory field and may not provide enough information for the administrators. Creating design standards with a document to store all custom objects and custom fields is not an option that an Architect should recommend, as it may be difficult to keep the document updated and synchronized with the actual metadata in the org. Creating design standards to require all custom fields on all custom object page layouts is not an option that an Architect should recommend, as it may clutter the user interface and reduce the usability and performance of the application.

: Storing the records in sandboxes and production is not a good practice, as it can lead to data inconsistencies and conflicts. Storing the records in a version control system is a better option, as it allows tracking changes and deploying them to different environments. Using a third-party product to manage these records is also a valid option, as it can provide features such as data backup, restore, and migration.

Following an ALM process can help avoid defects from being deployed to production, by ensuring that the code is tested and validated in different environments before reaching the end users. It can also help release new features on a consistent schedule, by establishing a clear roadmap and timeline for the development and deployment phases. Moreover, it can help prevent existing working functionality from stopping, by implementing backup and rollback strategies, as well as monitoring and troubleshooting tools. Training new users after each minor and major release is not a benefit of ALM, but rather a best practice for user adoption and change management. Defining metrics for application development project success is not a benefit of ALM, but rather a part of the project management and evaluation process.

 To run a subset of tests, set the Run Specified Tests test level on the DeployOptions object and pass it as an argument to the deploy() call and specify only the test classes that are required to be executed, as specifying the test method is not supported in DeployOptions. These statements are true regarding running specific tests during deployments. The Run Specified Tests test level allows the developer to choose which tests to run in production, while specifying the test method is not a valid option for the DeployOptions object.
