Lesson goal This lesson explains how to test Salesforce automation that changes record state, especially when those changes are irreversible or trigger external side effects. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * identify high-risk state transitions in Salesforce processes * design tests for irreversible status changes and record locks

Lesson goal This lesson explains why the Salesforce Order of Execution (OOE) is critical for QA and how automation components interact during record save operations. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * understand how Salesforce processes a record save step by step * identify high-risk interaction points between Flows,

Lesson goal This lesson explains why Governor Limits are a critical QA concern, not just a developer problem. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * understand how Salesforce Governor Limits impact integrations and automation * design bulk tests that expose non-bulkified logic * detect inefficient SOQL and DML usage * identify

Lesson goal This lesson explains how QA validates data consistency in integrated Salesforce environments. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * understand why latency is unavoidable in integrations * test whether synchronization delays are acceptable to the business * verify retry and recovery mechanisms * detect data overwrite and conflict scenarios

Lesson goal This lesson explains how QA should test and document integration failures in Salesforce environments where multiple systems interact asynchronously. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * identify common integration failure modes * design test cases for partial and asynchronous failures * verify compensating logic and recovery paths * validate

Lesson goal This lesson explains how Salesforce Governor Limits translate into QA responsibilities. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * understand why Governor Limits are QA requirements, not developer trivia * design test cases that expose bulkification and performance risks * validate synchronous vs asynchronous execution strategies * identify scalability defects

Lesson goal This lesson explains how QA should test Salesforce at scale, not just functionally. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * design bulk operation test cases (imports, mass updates, deletions) * expose non-bulkified automation and performance bottlenecks * understand data volume and ownership skew risks * validate long-running asynchronous jobs

Lesson goal This lesson explains how QA should allocate testing effort in Salesforce projects. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * distinguish platform behavior from custom logic * avoid wasting time testing Salesforce internals * focus QA effort where defects actually occur * design smarter, risk-based test plans This lesson closes

Lesson goal This lesson identifies recurring Salesforce QA failure patterns observed across real projects and explains how to defend against them proactively. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * recognize high-risk QA blind spots early * anticipate failures before they reach production * apply defensive test strategies instead of reactive

Lesson goal This lesson explains how to apply Modules 04.01–04.06 in real Salesforce projects. After completing this lesson, you should be able to: * translate technical QA modules into a practical test plan * prioritize testing based on risk, not module order * design integrated test cases that validate multiple
