Send a link to the report in the notification
It'd be nice to have a link to the report included in the notification for any scheduled monitoring, test run or deployment/validation.
8 votesThanks for the suggestion.
When you run a deployment, the deployment success email contains the PDF of the deployment report, as well as a link to your deployment history to view the full information.
For the test/change monitoring emails, what sort of report would you like to see? Would you like to see the full information on tests run or just a summary of key stats?
We don’t currently provide the ability to export PDF reports for our change and test monitoring jobs in the same way as our deployments, but it’s something we’ve been thinking about putting in.
Thanks,
Jason. -
Add ability to exclude specific files/folders of repo from a compare with source control
Currently, if you try to compare a repository to a Salesforce org, it will throw an error with only the ability to send a report to Gearset if the repository contains files that are not compatible (gulp files, package.json, etc. at the root of the repo or any folder that isn't corresponding to a Salesforce type of file).
My suggestion would be to add the ability for the user to exclude those files or folders from the compare and retry when it fails. This issue currently prevents us to use source control in the comparisons.

Scroll to top of category, when switch between All Items, Changed Items etc
Just a user preference item – when you switch tabs (ex: New Objects to Deleted Objects), it doesn’t place you at the top of the window.
So if I scroll down through all the New Objects and then switch tabs to the Deleted Objects, it just places me in the same relative location as I was in the New Objects tab.
It would be nice to have it reset to the top of each window when I switch tabs.

Specified Test Level Suggestion
Hello,
It would be very nice to be able to have a test classes suggestion when doing a deployment with "specified test level". The suggestion will ensure the package elements will be covered at least by 75% and so speed up the deployment.

When migrating ReportFolders, either remove running user or let me map users between Sandboxes/environments
When migrating ReportFolders, either remove running user or let me map users between Sandboxes/environments
The SharedTo User doesn't exist in the target org causing my deployment to fail.

Add merge functionality to the diff tool
Extend the diff tool to allow the user to perform a merge, creating a new version of the component that contains some changes from the source version and some changes from the target version. This would be very useful in a team development scenario where multiple devs are working on features in individual dev sandboxes and then pushing completed features into an integration sandbox.
79 votesMerging differences between Apex classes and VisualForce pages is difficult to do automatically due to the understanding required by the developer. For differences between two orgs in other object types, Gearset helps you sidestep that with our granular comparison results.

Show the Label as a column in the comparison screen
At present the comparison screen, Name column, only shows the information from the API name, but not the Label (as seen in Setup > Object Manager > Label column).
When the Label is wildly different from the API name, is would be super useful to have the Label displayed as a column, instead of having to find it in the XML viewer.

When running "Compare and Deploy", or via a similar mechanism, allow the target to be a local zip
In rarer situations where I need to make some manual adjustments to the metadata XML for a deployment, I'd like to be able to download the metadata to adjust it. Today you need to go through a compare, and at the end, you can download the package, but this can be problematic, since you have to choose the target org, there need to be differences, etc.
Instead, it would be useful to just choose the source org, select the metadata items, and save the package, without a target org needed.

Add system log fields for created and updated operations for filters
It will be helpful if we know who/when a filter is changed. And it would be great if we could lock the filters as an owner.

Allow the ability to "uncheck" No DIfference items on the Selected Items tab
When cloning previous deployments, there are may cases where items may have been previously deployed, so the now would show as "No Difference". Currently these items can not be unselected for the deployment. It would be useful to be able to remove these from a current deployment to keep the deployment clean.

Deployment count in the blue banner wrong for old deployments
When viewing old/past deployment details, that old deployment shows me the big blue banner saying that ---this--- was our {insert total number of deployments ever}th deployment no matter which old deployment I'm viewing.
This confused me a bit because I wanted to view our say 5th deployment ever so expected the number to say this was our 5th deployment, and I ended up closing the details browser tab twice thinking I pressed the wrong button to view the latest deployment. Yeah I could have looked at the tiny timestamp somewhere on that details view, but this large blue banner/counter just…

Make "Clone package" openable in a new tab
In Deployment history, there are two buttons I use the "view details" which I can open in a new tab without leaving the list of deployments, and the "clone package" which I can't open in a new tab. I can workaround it easily (duplicate tabs, or first view details then clone from there), but it was disappointing that I have to.
I needed to re-deploy say 10 deployments into a different sandbox and so the clone package feature was amazingly useful, but this little nag prevented me from entering the blissful nirvana of wielding the perfect tool for the job…

Pending Validation - Copy from Pending Deployment
Similar to "Pending Deployments" It would be nice to see pending validations. We have several users in gearset, so if we are trying to validate something while someone has already initiated a validation, we receive the error that set up has been locked. So prior to validating a package, it would be great to check if anyone is in the process.

Show rows that have no set "Changed On" date when applying a date filter.
Currently the moment you deselect a single specific date, all blank dates are also filtered out.
I would expect only the items with the given date be removed from the list.
This has become apparent now that the sort order of dates in the pulldown bug has been fixed.

Allow PMD to be configured by uploading a xml file with rules
We use PMD locally in our IDEs to analyse during development, and the whole team shares a rule file in xml. It excludes the ones we don't like and configures other rules.
We can configure Gearset to do the same through the UI, but I'd rather be able to just upload the file, then I will know they are the same set of rules.

show which deployment each metadata was a part of when doing a bulk clone.
When doing a bulk clone, each metadata should show what previous deployment it was a part of as to allow us to verify that the bulk clone worked. Another use case is that it would allow us to find a deployment we know has changed and be able to remove or change the metadata quickly.

Extend the ability to add and delete in a single deployment to all metadata types
We just came across an issue in which we were deploying an HTML email template that had been moved from one folder to another in the source environment.
When deploying, only the delete happened on the first deploy. I needed to do a second deploy to handle the addition.
While probably not a common case, it's certainly important as the initial deployment reports that the addition was successful.

More Details for Open Draft Deployments: Show Name & Refresh Date
When you open a Draft Deployment it would be great to see its name on the deployment page as well as its refresh date. I understand that when you open a draft deployment you're seeing a snapshot from when it was created or refreshed.
