  1. Ability to export results of historic test run

    When successfully validating a pull request, there is a "view details" link under the "Merge and validation checks" section. When clicked, in the new page that opens there is a button "Export test results…" that allows me to download the test results in excel file with detailed precision, reporting each test method duration.

    Unfortunately this feature is only accessible when PR are being validated, and disappears when checking historic PRs already closed and deployed. Would it be possible to provide such data?

  2. Allow customization options for the Deployment Report file name

    It would be nice to either have the option to set a default file name or allow the ability to set the report file name in the deployment screen.

    For my organization, this would make sorting deployment reports for various projects much easier as the file name doesn't include the Package Label.

  4. Version Control Commit History in Comparisons

    When you compare a version control repo to an environment, it would be awesome to see the commit history get pulled in so you can quickly filter for a specific commit message(s)

  5. sidebar

    Love the comparison v2 but can there be an option to collapse the side bar with all the metadata types? When doing diffs sometimes I wish I could have the full width of the screen.

  6. Split Lightning Page Metadata Type

    Think the Lightning Page metadata type needs to be split into 2 categories. Reason being it is the one metadata type that causes comparisons to run for extremely long times or even crash/time out. This happens because it trying to compare all of the lightning email templates users make. It would be better if lightning email templates were their own metadata type and the lightning page type was actually just lightning pages created for objects.

  7. To provide the deployment history of all deployments, not only the ones from compare and deploy.

    It is useful to be able to filter and download all promotion history in a similar way we can do for deployment history.

  8. Write deployment results to a custom Object.

    We use a custom ticket object in our processes to track salesforce change requests. The ability to write deployment, validation results to a custom object would be very helpful.

  9. Multiple screens

    I work with 2-3 screens. It would be great to be able to split the comparison settings to one screen and have the xml, flow navigator, lightning page visualizer,... on another screen. That way users can see more as they work. As a photographer I use Adobe photoshop and lightroom both applications allow splitting the controls and output.

  10. The Ability to add deployments to a folder or tagging them...

    On the Validated packages, Draft Deployments, Depolyment history it would be great if users could create folders or tags to group deployment or validated packages. Use case: Team has a large deployment that will be split into multiple parts a folder or tagging would help with organization and tracking.

  11. The destructiveChangesPost.xml file should be processed in manual comparison

    The destructiveChangesPost.xml should be processed when using local file as a source for manual comparison. Ideally the items listed in the destructive file should be used as filter for which to show in the Deleted filter

  12. Ability it use SOQL to provide complex filters on Vlocity and Salesforce Metadata types to create custom Compare & Deploy Filters

    I would like to have the ability to enter SOQL queries to filter Metadata types and data. Currently you can only use Object or Regex when you try to filter the data to fine tune the comparison. We are looking to do this for Vlocity and Salesforce metadata types and objects

  13. precision deployment for Record types

    precision deployment for Record types is required. currently when i try to deploy a record type gearset automatically adds all the picklist fields in that object. if we wanted to deploy only record type or only selected picklist fields currently its not possible. hence, precision deployment is needed for deploying record types

  14. Allow Adjusted Column Sizes to Persist in the Comparison Table

    Have adjusted column sizes persist once they've been adjusted in the comparison table instead of resetting with each selection. Deploying changes to permission sets could be dramatically streamlined if it's possible to maintain resized columns. If column sizes were set to accommodate the name instead of giving them all the same size, that would also be a huge improvement. The other columns don't include as much info as the name column so it's a waste to give them so much space. It is also inconvenient to caret down in permission sets especially when looking for multiple fields in one permission…

  15. Add a Button to Retry Validation on Updates

    The new Updates feature is great, but there isn't a "retry" button when there are validation errors to resolve. It's not very intuitive to have to cancel the update and go start over to retry after fixing validation errors. Currently it just shows that the validation failed and the update can be cancelled. It isn't clear what to do after resolving the validation error, and a retry validation button would simplify the process.
    I had an error related to a manual change that needed to be enabled in my sandbox, and I had to cancel the update to get it…

  16. Allow configuration of where pull request/merge updates are posted in Jira. User comments are being missed because of the volume of updates.

    Allow configuration of where pull request/merge updates are posted in Jira. User comments are being missed because of the volume of updates from Gearset when moving a set of changes through the pipeline. These updates are important and we want to keep them, however having the ability of moving them to another tab/section on the Jira ticket would mean we could keep the comments section for user comments only.

  19. Remove files from a PR

    I want the ability in Gearset to selectively remove files from a branch or PR without running another comparison.

    I have an admin that frequently "over commits" too many things.

    Often its bad enough that its just easiest for them to delete the branch in github then start over in gearset.

    The problem then is that starting over from scratch, a day or two since they worked on it, and they will make a different mistake.

    I'm aware of a few features, like

    1. Delete the branch in Github and start over in gearset

      • Seems to be the easiest to me

  20. Allow for different pull request messages.

    I would like the ability to have different pull requests message per pull request that is autogenerated when you move through the pipeline.

    Example: When I first create a pull request from dev to my next static environment the message would only pertain to that static environment. So from Dev to UAT I would include a pull request message pertaining to testing.

    Then after that I would move from UAT to Staging so the message would be something about the testing and how it is complete and ready to move to staging which is our integration environment.

    Then when that…
