Salesforce Certified Development Lifecycle and Deployment Architect — Question 17

Universal Containers is about to begin the release of a major project. To facilitate this, they have several sandboxes to make their deployment train. These sandboxes are a mix of preview and non-preview instances.
What should the architect recommend?

Answer options

• A. No advice needed, mixing instance types is important for regression testing.
• B. Refresh all non-preview sandboxes when the release management team has time.
• C. Contact support to rollback the release when Salesforce upgrades the sandboxes.
• D. Refresh all non-preview sandboxes during the release preview window.

Correct answer: D

Explanation

The correct answer is D because refreshing non-preview sandboxes during the release preview window ensures that they are up-to-date with the latest changes, allowing for accurate testing. Option A is incorrect as mixing instance types can lead to inconsistencies in testing results. Option B delays necessary updates and may not align with the release schedule, while option C is not a proactive approach to managing releases.
