Validation Failures - Show Error in Table
In the new UI for Validation to view failed test classes error messages you must click into each failed class to view the details.
The previous UI showed "part" of the error message within the table. This was extremely useful in identifying all of the "unique" errors that are occurring.
IE: If 58 test classes fail from "4" unique issues -- then in order to determine that you may need to click into all 58 test classes or fix one at a time --> refresh --> validate.
This is just a time save feature.

Offer to push components that passed validation even if some items failed
For large payloads (thousands of artifacts) it can be tedious to try to resolve a few minor issues when 99% of the package will deploy successfully. Having a feature to push stuff that passes validation would be helpful. Included in this in the deployment summary and deployment reports will be a count and list of items that failed validation and were omitted from the package so they can be investigated

Add the option to purge on delete
The metadata API has a boolean option to "purge on delete", i.e. permanently erase deleted items rather than just moving them to the recycle bin. This option is not exposed in Gearset currently, but rather hardcoded to "false". For CI scenarios in particular, it would be extremely helpful to be able to specify that this option should be set to "true" for deployments.

Notify Slack when deployment is successful
I would like to inform Slack on when a manual deployment is successful or failed. It will tell me what the source environment and what was the destination environment. It will also tell me if what the success/fail ratio of the tests that were run.

Show history of changes for a component
When performing forensic analysis regarding how or why something started working differently, it would be a great timesaver to be able to select a component and then be able to select the data comparisons for just that component. For example, select an apex class and then pick date dates so the system can display what changed. I would expect that this would be quicker than going into Monitoring Histories and picking each date and waiting for it to build the entire comparison of everything that changed and then having to find the component of interest.

Allow for custom metadata permissions to be included with a single click when custom fields are being deployed
For example; when adding new custom fields, you generally have to add the permissions as an additional line item to the deployment. Having a checkbox or something that will have gearset automatically add the permissions associated with the metadata currently in the deployment list would speed up the process. Users should also be allowed to deselect lines that were automatically added.

Remind repo owner to upgrade metadata on SFDC version change
Your blog post https://gearset.com/blog/mdapi-versioning-and-version-control says it all under the paragraph labeled "Upgradingyour repository's metadata"
But there's no real reminder to tell the team that this is a meritorious idea. My suggestion is that for the first 30 days after PROD is updated, you could display (in color) some alert (or maybe introduce a messages feature) wherein you tell the team that the repo's package.xml is out of date (version wise) with PROD version and provide pointers on how to upgrade, including nuances like Flows (v44).
It is too easy to get lazy and leave the repo metadata out of date…

Enable Defaults or Recently Used on Clone Deployment Page
When you clone a deployment package you have to select your Source details, but the selections do not default to the the last used settings or to a recently/commonly used settings. This is a minor annoyance but in other parts of GS you have the last selected options already selected based on user history, so hoping you can extend this to the Clone page

Allow option to select certain test classes to NOT run. Include an exclusion list of tests not to run
When deploying code, it would be nice to have an option of having an exclusion list of test classes to not run.

Build Comparison Manifest from pull request
It would be cool if the custom deployment configuration could be driven from a Pull Request . For example, in GitHub, the Pull Request knows which files were changed and approved. Why not use that list to instantly populate a comparison to create a deployable manifest to go from source control to org?

Selection Count Mismatch
The Selection count on ‘Compare and Deploy’ page doesn’t match with ‘Items Selected’ on ‘Draft Deployment’ when a draft deployment is opened. Having this in sync will help user that all selections are going in the deployment.

We need a lock to the custom comparison filters so that the team will be on the same page and only the deployment manager can be responsible for all the deployments

Ability to add custom trigger points to trigger CI from source control
At the moment the tool allows you to only kick off CI jobs when a branch is updated.
This is actually limiting the capability of the tool in itself,
because services like Bitbucket allows you customize trigger points, as to when they should ping the webhook;
such as the creation of pull request, merging a pull request.The two trigger points mentioned above are specifically very important because you would want to run validation CI jobs on the creation of pull request or when the merge completes so that you can actually ascertain if your branch compiles.

Jira: ability to associate tickets during comparison
Would like the ability to associate Jira tickets during the comparison process so that it can be saved to draft deployments and can continue to add as needed. Currently it appears you can only add Jira tickets after you have finalized all items for deployment.
