Challenges?  Teams : Those Dudes From 300  Custom or product development. Multiple devs in multiple dev orgs. Source Control = Git / SVN.Automated deployments (Ant). Benefits? Challenges?  Your Turn  What does your current Force.com development team look like?  Org Topologies  "The collection of SF orgs, their relationships and purposes to support Force.com development".   In other words... Dev Orgs, Sandboxes and Production  Team-Driven Org Topologies      1 org.       Challenges with scaling beyond one dev.                  Overwritten code.                  “Refresh from Server” is your new job.  Team-Driven Org Topologies    1 org / team.   Scaling still an issue, but delayed,                   manageable in some cases.  Team-Driven Org Topologies  1 org / developer.   Developers have the most flexibility.                      Source control, deployment management                      become important.  Project-Driven Org Topologies       1 org.       Similar to team-driven scenario. Scale will                   become a challenge.                   Naming conventions and / or namespaces                   become important.  Project-Driven Org Topologies   1 org / project.   Most-flexible development approach.                     Again, naming conventions.                     Source control, deployment management                     become important.

You can’t deal with issues anywhere else.                          Most of us probably work this way.  Purpose-Driven Org Topologies  1 org to dev and test,   Dev and internal testing happen together.    1 org to stage.       Client can be directed to staging.                          You can exercise your deployments.  Purpose-Driven Org Topologies  1 org to dev, 1 org to   Dev and internal testing are isolated.  test, 1 org to stage.

Combining Org Topologies    Lone Ranger     Dynamic Duo   Dudes from 300  Adopting Org Topologies  Decide on the smallest, most helpful change. Don’t forget about Admins. I repeat. Do not forget about Admins. Source control can help.  Your Turn  What recent or recurring challenges do you face with team development on Force.com?  Source Control Management  Formal SCM - Git, SVN, etc. Dropbox, Google Drive, etc. Backups. Sandbox. None.  “Git is a free and open source distributed version control system designed to handle everything from small to very large projects with speed and efficiency.”   http://git-scm.com/about   It’s source control that (mostly) makes sense.  “Github helps people build software together.”   http://github.com/about   It’s a Git service provider to manage teams and projects.  Git Commands and Clients  Commands tells Git what to do (clone / commit / push / pull / etc) Clients make those commands easier.     Github App (Win / Mac)     Gitbox (Mac)     Git for Windows (Win)     TortoiseGit (Win)   Try them all out, find the right fit for features and metaphor  Your Turn  What source control approaches are you using in your development?  Source Control Demo  Using Github for a project with multiple developers.  What Just Happened?  1. Created a Git repository in Github. 2. Push to repository with Force.com IDE files. 3. Permission sets help remove (some) profile requirements. 4. Developers pull from repository, align to their own dev orgs. 5. Configure (profiles, permission sets, etc). 6. Do work. 7. Repeat from Step #2.  Deployment Tools  Setup Audit Log. Change Sets. Permission Sets. Eclipse. Force.com Migration Tool.  Deployment Approaches  Setup Audit Log + Change Sets = Admins in sandbox. Permission Sets > Profiles. Eclipse = tried and true. Force.com Migration Tool = automation.  “Apache Ant is a Java library and command-line tool whose mission is to drive processes described in build files as targets and extension points dependent upon each other.”   http://ant.apache.org   Tom says: “it automates stuff.”  Deployment Demo  Automated deployment using Github and the Force.com Migration Tool.  What Just Happened?  1. Developer pushes to Github repository. 2. Github sends a message to the build server. 3. Build server pulls from the Github repository. 4. Build server deploys to Salesforce org with Migration Tool.  Conclusion  There are lots of moving parts (including many we didn’t cover). There is more than one way to do it. There is no right answer, but there might be a better answer.   Try multiple dev orgs - it’s a big step but has big potential. Try source control - it will help bring order to your projects. Try the migration tool - it’s efficient and can be automated.
