Hey there and welcome to this Test Automation University course on Setting the Stage for Salesforce QA Excellence!

My name is Gandharv Madan, and I am a software testing professional and the creator behind the Salesforce Testing Guy community.

This course is designed to give you a thorough overview of the Salesforce ecosystem from the perspective of a QA engineer and show you how to perform manual Salesforce testing effectively.

Whenever the word "engineering" is brought up, everyone talks about development, but we are shifting the focus to quality. Over our four-chapter journey, we will cover:

  • Chapter 1: Understanding the Salesforce ecosystem, its core components, and the QA's role in the development lifecycle.

  • Chapter 2: Platform preconditions, logging in, and setting up a free playground org.

  • Chapter 3: Navigating the Salesforce UI and understanding key testing implications.

  • Chapter 4: First steps in manual Salesforce testing, exploratory testing, bug reporting, and customization testing.

I have built a community of close to 10,000 testers, and my goal is to help you become a better Salesforce test engineer so you can confidently add value to your team.

I can't wait to get started! Best of luck and happy software testing!
