Salesforce Certified Development Lifecycle and Deployment Designer — Question 17

Universal Containers (UC) is a high-tech company using SFDX tools and methodologies for its Salesforce development. T UC has moved some of its code and configuration to Unlocked Packages.
Which two best practices should an architect recommend to support UC’s new package development strategy? (Choose two.)

Answer options

• A. Consult the metadata coverage report to identify features supported by packages
• B. Move everything in the existing codebase to a single monolithic package
• C. Version control does not need to be used, as packages manage all the code and configuration
• D. Test developed packages in test environments before installing to production

Correct answer: B, D

Explanation

Option B is correct because moving everything into a single monolithic package can simplify management but may not be the best practice for modular development. Option D is correct as testing packages in a controlled environment ensures stability before they are introduced to production. Options A and C are incorrect; consulting the metadata coverage report is a best practice, and version control is essential for tracking changes even when using packages.
