Mastering Salesforce DevOps

Mehr zum Buch

This practical guide integrates DevOps principles into Salesforce development, bridging the gap between Software/Platform as a Service (SaaS/PaaS) and the DevOps movement. SaaS and PaaS enable companies to focus on core competencies instead of managing infrastructure, while DevOps aims to enhance software delivery processes. The introduction of Salesforce DX in late 2017 opens up the potential for a genuine DevOps workflow within Salesforce. However, the adoption of Salesforce DX is still nascent, as understanding of DevOps in this context is limited. This guide demonstrates how to establish a robust DevOps workflow for Salesforce, empowering users to leverage effective techniques for deploying this innovative platform. It serves as a comprehensive resource for Salesforce teams, introducing proven IT practices to tackle the challenges faced by Salesforce developers. Readers will learn to improve overall company and software delivery performance with Salesforce DX, translate DevOps concepts into Salesforce-specific practices, implement Salesforce DX for increased productivity, enable continuous delivery, build deployable packages, involve admins in developer workflows, reduce deployment stress and risk, and apply a full range of automated tests for Salesforce.
