Question 1

Universal Containers (UC) is developing a custom Force.com application. The following tools are used for development, the Force.com IDE for developing apps. Git as a source control system and a Git repository, and the Force.com Migration Tool for updating sandboxes from source control. UC's current branching strategy calls for two main branches: 1) Master 2) Develop Three supporting branches: 1) Feature 2) Release 3) Hotflix Consider that the branching strategy is in parallel as follows Feature |Develop |Release |Hotfix |Master What is the recommended practice strategy that Developers should adopt for Development?

A : Developers work off of the Feature branch, which is pulled from the Master branch and the Feature branch is then merged with the Develop branch.

B : Developers work off of the Feature branch, which is pulled from the Develop branch, and the Feature branch is then merged with the Develop branch.

C : Developers work off of the Feature branch, which is pulled from the Release branch, and the Feature branch is then merged with the Develop branch.

D : Developers work off of the Feature branch, which is pulled from the Develop branch, and the Feature branch is then merged with the Hotfix branch.

Answer: B

Question 2

Universal Containers (UC) is working on a project to support environmental cleanup projects with specially designed containers. To support this project, UC is developing a portal for regulatory agencies to use for tracking and reporting of the containers, and these regulatory requirements are well-defined. Many non -regulatory requirements have not been defined yet. The project is on a strict budget and timeline. Which two approaches should UC consider to meet regulatory requirements and to satisfy the needs of end users? Choose 2 answers

A : Initiate a waterfall project and start building the features of the solution based on regulatory requirements. In parallel, gather the remaining non -regulatory requirements for the solution, then go back and reconcile the two sets of requirements and re -work the solution as necessary

B : Initiate an Agile project, beginning with a "sprint 0" to scope and estimate the project and to build the product backlog. Identify the minimum viable product. Initiate building the solution based on the backlog, and co -create the design with the project stakeholders

C : Initiate a waterfall project by gathering the remaining requirements and completing the architecture and design. Initiate the build/test processes with frequent reviews by the stakeholders. On build completion, perform acceptance testing and validate compliance with regulatory requirements

D : Initiate an Agile project based on the known requirements, begin building immediately, and work through remaining requirements as they come up. Budget and timeline will not be a factor with an Agile methodology

Answer: A,C

Question 3

Universal Containers (UC) has many different business units, all requesting new projects to be built into a single Salesforce Org. UC management is concerned with a lack of appropriate project properties and roadmap for the Salesforce ecosystem. What should an Architect recommend?

A : Use design Standards for Governance.

B : Create a Center of Excellence with a charter document.

C : Create a Release Management Process.

D : Create project charters for each project.

Answer: B

Question 4

Universal Containers (UC) had implemented two full sandboxes. One, known as Stage,

is used for performance, regression testing, and production readiness check. The other is used primarily for

user acceptance testing (UAT). Both full sandboxes were refreshed two months ago. Currently, UC is targeting

to start user acceptance testing in two weeks, and do production release in four weeks. An admin also realized

Salesforce will have a major release in six weeks.

UC needs to release on the current Salesforce version, but also wants to make sure the new

Salesforce release does not break anything

What should an architect recommend?

A : Refresh Stage now, and do not refresh UAT. This way, Stage will be on preview and UAT will not.

B : Use the Sandbox Preview Guide to check if there is any necessary action needed. UC might have to prepare, refresh, and redeploy to UAT.

C : Visit trust.salesforce.com to figure out the preview cutoff dates, if the dates had passed, work with support to get on the preview instance.

D : Refresh Stage from UAT now. After preview cutoff, use the upgraded one for regression test, use the non-upgraded one for user acceptance Test.

Answer: B

Question 5

Metadata API supports deploy () and retrieve () calls for file-based deployment.

Which two scenarios are the primary use cases for writing code to call retrieve () and deploy ()

methods directly?

Choose 2 answers

A : Team development of an application in a Developer Edition organization. After completing development and testing, the application is Distributed via Lightning Platform AppExchange.

B : Development of a custom application in a scratch org. After completing development and testing, the application is then deployed into an upper sandbox using Salesforce CLI (SFDX)

C : Development of a customization in a sandbox organization. The deployment team then utilize the Ant Migration Tool to deploy the customization to an upper sandbox for testing.

D : Development of a custom application in a sandbox organization. After completing development and testing, the application is then deployed Into a production organization using Metadata API.

Answer: B,C
