Abstract

The evolution of Salesforce from a basic Customer Relationship Management (CRM) system to an expansive cloud ecosystem has necessitated the implementation of robust development and deployment practices. This transformation underscores the importance of adopting DevOps and Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment (CI/CD) within Salesforce environments. These methodologies address challenges such as metadata management, version control, automated testing, and deployment processes, which are vital for maintaining efficiency and reliability in development pipelines. This article explores the best practices for Salesforce DevOps and CI/CD, offering in-depth technical insights to assist developers and administrators in optimizing their workflows and ensuring successful deployments.
