Salesforce Updated Development-Lifecycle-and-Deployment-Architect Exam Questions and Answers by erick

 Executing all test classes in sandboxes can help identify and fix any errors or failures before deploying to production. Executing selected test classes in production can help reduce the deployment time and avoid running unnecessary tests.

The benefits of managing change with Packaged Development are:

Versioning to help with change management, as it allows the developers to track the changes made to the metadata and roll back to previous versions if needed.

Making the release cycle more efficient and agile, as it enables the developers to deploy smaller and more frequent updates to the orgs, reducing the risk of errors and conflicts.

Modular development process with specification of dependencies among packages, as it allows the developers to break down the metadata into logical units that can be reused and updated independently, while ensuring that the dependencies are resolved correctly. Managing the number of sandboxes needed to successfully deploy is not a benefit of Packaged Development, as it is more related to the sandbox strategy and the development model. Clearly dividing developers and testers is also not a benefit of Packaged Development, as it is more related to the team structure and the testing strategy.

The architect should recommend that UC start a citizen development program to minimize additional costs and allow UC to accomplish more from the backlog. 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.

A requirement traceability matrix is a project artifact that maps each requirement to its corresponding test cases, ensuring that all requirements are covered by testing. User acceptance test scripts are the actual steps to execute the test cases, not the artifact that links them to the requirements. Testing strategy and test execution plan are high-level documents that describe the overall approach and schedule for testing, not the specific mapping of requirements and test cases.
