What is Salesforce testing?
Salesforce is a CRM (customer relationship management) application that businesses use to store information about their customers, manage sales processes, track leads, send emails, and more. A cloud application, Salesforce also integrates with complex systems like SAP/Oracle and other desktop and web applications.
As a highly customizable CRM tool, Salesforce testing is required to check if custom workflows and integrations with other third-party applications are functioning without any errors. It also requires wide-scale mandatory release updates, making business-critical processes that rely on Salesforce susceptible to downtime and causing considerable expenses.
Importance of Salesforce testing
Frequent product updates and regular releases
Salesforce evolves through new features and updates, and it's essential to ensure that existing functionalities remain unaffected.
Dynamic locators for elements
Salesforce features dynamic elements that lack fixed identifiers, such as ID, name, class, or CSS attributes, making hard-coding element locators impractical.
Heavy DOM structure with shadow DOMs
The heaviness of Salesforce's DOM structure, coupled with the utilization of shadow DOMs, makes prompt element identification in UI test automation a challenging task.
Data validation
Customizing Salesforce for business needs requires multiple validation rules, proper functioning of data import/export from Salesforce, and data validation in various fields and objects, to ensure data is utilized and retrieved appropriately.
Ensuring functionality
Being a highly customizable application, multiple views, layouts, custom workflows and extensive integrations are possible. This highlights the necessity to ensure that new changes do not affect existing functionalities.
