Development-Lifecycle-and-Deployment-Architect Exam Dumps - Salesforce Certified Platform Development Lifecycle and Deployment Architect (Plat-Arch-202)

D is the correct answer, as automated testing is the best approach to mitigate the risk of bugs being inadvertently introduced to production. Automated testing can help to ensure that the code meets the quality and functionality standards, as well as detect and prevent any errors or regressions before deploying to production. A is incorrect, as user acceptance testing is not enough to mitigate the risk of bugs, as it depends on the manual testing and feedback of the end users, which can be subjective and incomplete. B is incorrect, as the use of an agile methodology is not directly related to mitigating the risk of bugs, as it is a way of managing the project scope, requirements, and delivery. C is incorrect, as requirements traceability is not directly related to mitigating the risk of bugs, as it is a way of tracking the requirements and their fulfillment. You can learn more about this topic in the Testing Strategies module on Trailhead.

The architect should suggest the following actions to help UC discover the failing unit tests earlier: Train the administrators to make their changes in a special “admin changes” sandbox, and then promote to production, and ensure a metadata backup is committed to version control every day and a diff published to the release team. Training the administrators to use a sandbox can help prevent direct changes to production that can break the code or the unit tests. Ensuring a metadata backup and a diff can help identify any changes that have been made to production and compare them with the source of truth.

 D is the correct answer, as utilizing automated source control, test, and build systems to test and deploy to production can help to maintain quality and reduce the risk of bugs being introduced to production. Automated systems can ensure that the code is consistent, version-controlled, tested, and validated before deploying to production. A is incorrect, as requiring developers to deploy completed code and unit tests directly to production can introduce errors and conflicts, as well as bypass the testing and validation stages. B is incorrect, as deploying all functionality together can create complexity and dependency issues, as well as delay the release of completed features. C is incorrect, as using a spreadsheet to track approved changes that should be released with change sets can be prone to human errors and inconsistencies, as well as lack of automation and integration. You can learn more about this topic in the Continuous Integration and Continuous Delivery module on Trailhead.

 Fixing the issue in hotfix, testing, and deploying to production is the best option when UC has PI issues and has to be fixed immediately. A hotfix sandbox is a type of sandbox that is used for emergency fixes in production. It is a copy of the production org and has a shorter refresh interval than other sandboxes. A hotfix sandbox allows the team to quickly fix and test the issue without affecting the ongoing development and release cycles.

 B and D are the correct answers, as Force.com IDE and Force.com Migration Tool are the deployment tools that will support the request of creating a new custom object to track Shipping Containers and making it available globally by all Salesforce instances and further maintained and modified regionally by local administrators. Force.com IDE and Force.com Migration Tool are both tools that use the Metadata API to retrieve and deploy metadata components, such as custom objects, from one org to another. They also allow for selective deployment, meaning that only the components that are needed can be deployed, without affecting the rest of the org. A is incorrect, as Tooling API is not a deployment tool, but an API that provides access to metadata and code, as well as customizing and automating the development process. C is incorrect, as Change sets are not a deployment tool that will support the request, as they are limited to deploying components between connected orgs, and do not allow for selective deployment or regional modifications. You can learn more about these tools in the Deploy Changes with the Force.com Migration Tool and Deploy Changes with the Force.com IDE units on Trailhead.

Develop, Build Release, and Test are three steps that apply to any Salesforce development project, regardless of the size, complexity, or methodology. Develop is the step where the developers create the code and configuration components that meet the requirements and specifications. Build Release is the step where the components are packaged and deployed to different environments for testing and validation. Test is the step where the components are verified and validated against the requirements and specifications, as well as the quality and performance standards. Continuous Integration and Change Sets are not steps, but tools or techniques that can be used to facilitate the development project. Continuous Integration is a technique that involves merging the code from different developers frequently and automatically, to ensure consistency and avoid conflicts. Change Sets are a tool that allows the developers to move the components from one org to another org.

C and D are the correct answers, as they are the best strategies to address a critical production issue occurring in the middle of development. C is correct, as using a source control system to allow separate branches for current development and production bug fixes can help to isolate the changes and avoid conflicts or overwriting. D is correct, as refreshing a sandbox for replication of the issue and testing the use-case scenarios once the code is fixed can help to ensure the quality and functionality of the solution before deploying it to production. A is incorrect, as creating separate branches for current development and production bug fixes and deploying the fix with current development when ready can delay the resolution of the production issue and introduce new risks or errors. B is incorrect, as utilizing one branch for both development and production bug fixes to avoid out-of-sync branches and simplify deployment can create confusion and complexity in the code and make it harder to test and validate. You can learn more about these strategies in the Application Lifecycle and Deployment module on Trailhead.

The first step in establishing a governance framework is to identify the relevant stakeholders from within the organization to obtain their goals and objectives. This will help to define the scope, roles, responsibilities, and processes for managing the Salesforce initiatives. The other options are possible steps to take later, but not the first one.
