Scenario: Your Salesforce instance must synchronize
data real-time with an external data warehouse. How
would you handle CI/CD for integration updates?
Scenario: A new developer pushed changes directly to
the production branch, bypassing code reviews and
breaking the CI/CD pipeline. How would you prevent this
in the future?
Scenario: A deployment caused integration failures
between Salesforce and external systems (e.g., SAP,
MuleSoft). How would you set up proactive monitoring to
catch such issues earlier?
Scenario: Your Salesforce deployment strategy requires
integration with Jenkins, GitHub Actions, or Azure
DevOps. How would you set up a cross-platform
deployment pipeline?
Scenario: Your team is implementing feature branching
in Git for Salesforce DevOps. However, multiple
developers are working on different branches, causing
merge conflicts in metadata. How would you resolve and
prevent such conflicts?

Scenario: A new CI/CD pipeline implementation caused
unexpected metadata deletions in a sandbox
environment. How would you prevent this from
happening in production?
Scenario: You need to deploy a hotfix to production
outside the regular release cycle. How would you ensure
that this does not disrupt existing workflows?
Scenario: You are setting up DevOps for a multi-org
Salesforce setup, ensuring that metadata and
configuration changes are synchronized across all
instances. How would you achieve this?
Scenario: A deployment pipeline for Salesforce DX (SFDX)
fails intermittently due to conflicting metadata
dependencies between two different projects. How
would you debug and resolve this issue?
Scenario: Your Salesforce DevOps team is asked to
enforce field-level security (FLS) checks in the CI/CD
pipeline to ensure no sensitive fields are unintentionally
exposed. How would you implement this?
Scenario: You are responsible for managing Salesforce
DevOps for multiple business units, each with its own
requirements. How would you structure your pipelines to
maintain flexibility while ensuring governance?

Scenario: A Salesforce deployment failed, and metadata
changes were partially applied. Some components were
updated, but others remained unchanged. What would
you do to restore stability?
Scenario: You need to implement real-time deployment
monitoring and alerts for failures in Salesforce DevOps.
What tools would you use?
Scenario: Your team is deploying changes every two
weeks, but stakeholders want on-demand, smaller
releases without impacting stability. How would you
redesign your release strategy?
Scenario: A security audit revealed that some Apex
classes were not following secure coding practices (e.g.,
SOQL injection vulnerabilities). How would you automate
security checks in your pipeline?
Scenario: Your organization wants to implement shift-
left testing in Salesforce DevOps. How would you
integrate unit testing, static code analysis, and
performance testing into the pipeline?
Scenario: After a deployment, multiple users report
missing custom fields in production, but your
deployment logs show success. How would you
troubleshoot and recover the missing fields?

Scenario: Your organization wants real-time monitoring
of Salesforce deployments and failures. What tools and
strategies would you implement?
Scenario: Your Salesforce team is required to sync
metadata and code between multiple Orgs (e.g.,
Production, UAT, Sandbox). What DevOps tools would
you use to achieve seamless synchronization?
Scenario: Your team is deploying Salesforce changes
across multiple geographies, but users in different
regions are experiencing data synchronization issues.
How would you resolve this?
Scenario: Your deployment pipeline uses Change Sets,
but moving large metadata components between
sandboxes takes hours. How would you improve the
deployment speed?
Scenario: Your DevOps process involves deploying
metadata across multiple sandboxes. Some team
members are concerned about data leakage in lower
environments. How would you handle this?
Scenario: Your CI/CD pipeline runs Apex test classes
before deployment, but the test execution time has
increased significantly. How would you optimize test
execution?
