DevOps for Salesforce
Small and medium businesses are unable to get the opportunity to make the most out of modern software development due to its agility. The most common challenges faced by DevOps teams include maintenance issues, a non-synced working environment, production challenges, and low testing confidence.
However, when DevOps is combined with Salesforce, it gives the perfect solution for development and production. Unlike other software development processes, Salesforce development is different and focuses on developing the frameworks vials making you spend less time on coding. The feedback cycles are short and well-suited for teams to work on without facing maintenance issues.
You can create customized systems with Salesforce to streamline your entire team management as well as the execution of frameworks.
Important features and outcomes of merging DevOps with Salesforce:
Automation of Deployments: Salesforce deployments can be automated by automating the entire production pipeline instead of waiting for prolonged periods of time and approval. The agile movement of production reduces any quality-related issue during the process.

Increase in Release Frequency: DevOps for Salesforce helps you in collecting customer feedback and sending it back to the development for improvements and making the quality better. Release management tools also sure the release frequency is fast.
Shifting Left: It is an effective yet simple approach for testing processes. As the name suggests, the production and code testing of products and softwares is shifted towards the left in the agile framework. It not only brings down the time and effort required for production but also eliminates the need for iterations post-deployment.
