5 what are the limitations of the change sets? - ✔✔Change Sets Limitations - Companies
spend a lot of time building change sets. Here are some of the limitations of change sets
that you should know:
1.Change sets do not offer the capability to search components by name or type. As a
developer, you are forced to browse through multiple pages to find the metadata items
you want to select.
2.If you accidentally add a component, you cannot filter within your selections to
remove the component quickly.
3.Certain components are not available to be deployed using change sets, and it's
possible to move changes only across environments that are connected.
4.With change sets, all selected components come in a single list, so you can't scope
which modification is based on which request
5. Change sets do not enable continuous delivery, and automation of deployments is
not an easy task
6 What are the difficulties Keeping Environments in Sync? - ✔✔Release teams struggle
with sandbox syncing after deploying to higher environments. For example, if a
company uses a hotfix sandbox to develop and push fixes to production, lower
environments will show discrepancies regarding the production environment. These
differences can lead to deployment errors and a blocked pipeline. Even having multiple
developer environments requires users to keep those environments in sync.
7 What are the Problems arise if we refresh the sandboxes.? - ✔✔1. Metadata loss. All
the work in progress in a sandbox will be overwritten after the refresh.

,2. Full sandboxes can only be refreshed once per month, therefore they can't easily
receive changes that were sent from a hotfix environment to production.
3. Scrambled emails. Whenever a sandbox is refreshed, user email addresses are
modified in the sandbox so that production users don't receive automatically generated
email messages from the sandbox. Hence, users are required to validate an email
address change in order to be able to log in again into the sandbox. 4.Data loss. Unless
you're refreshing a full sandbox or a partial copy, you will lose all data. Hence, you
need to recreate the test data all over again.
8 What happens If multiple Developers working on the same components? - ✔✔"There
is a major issue when multiple developers work in the same environment and perform
changes in the same components. As mentioned in the Change Sets Limitations section,
when you work with change sets, you have no visibility on who has made what
changes, and there are no tools for you to foresee if your changes will be overwritten.
9 Why salesforce Deployment is Difficulty for the teams to collaborate? - ✔✔Salesforce
makes it amazingly easy for individuals to build changes but it was not made with
collaborations of large teams in mind. As your team grows, you may find it challenging
to collaborate. Synchronizing environments, tracking the history, and being unable to
merge changes on a line-by-line basis is difficult, so you are reducing your team's
possibilities to collaborate and work together.

release process and doesn't include native Agile tools and metrics.

types of tests that go beyond what Apex alone offers and can help ensure the quality of
your team's work. To keep their code optimized, companies have to make further
