More efficient spacing on Pipeline environments
We can only see 4 sandboxes at a time when fully zoomed out. We have 9 sandboxes. Since we aren't able to zoom out further or rearrange the sandboxes we are constantly dragging the screen to pan up and down, to see the state of the orgs.
There is so much whitespace in each node, any chance you could lessen the padding/spacing between the lines in each box/env/node, or between the nodes themselves? Maybe proportional to the max nodes in a single column?1 vote -

Comparison of draft deployments
Two teams who are supposed to be working on different parts of the sandbox org have created two draft deployments. I would like to compare these draft deployments to see if there is any overlap of selected items.

Gearset Unit Test Monitoring ignores test methods in classes at V27 or earlier
For older orgs, one may have Apex classes at V27 or earlier. Such classes were allowed to also include testmethods.
Gearset's Monitoring job ignores these test methods leading to a false sense of security that one's org is "correct"
Example class is at V24
class Foo {
void doStuff() {}
static void testmethod myTest() {
new Foo().doStuff();
System.assert(...);
}The myTest will not be run by Gearset Unit Test Monitoring. It will be run by Setup > Apex Test Execution > Foo > Run tests

Highlight "Failed Validation" Components
If the metadata Deployment Validation step fails, and the user clicks the "Back to Comparison" button, the components that caused the failure should be highlighted on the screen for manual review.
Currently, when a deployment fails on the validation step, my process is:
- Wait until the Validation step is done
- Sort by the Status to show Failures on top
- Take a screenshot of the list of errors (hopefully less than a full screen of errors)
- Click the "Back to Comparison" button
- Use the screenshot like a checklist to work through the errors
- Run Validation…1 vote -
Give CI/CD Users the option to use a shared webhook or a new one in BitBucket
Gearset recently updated its automated webhook setup for new CI/CD jobs to use a shared webhook. For my team, we have configured each webhook for validation jobs to only run on PR creation/update and deployments to only run on branch pushes. By forcing the new jobs to a single shared job, it causes PR merges to trigger validations alongside the deployment (Which is time-consuming and needless).
Also, as my team has many legacy webhooks for our existing jobs, when we add a new job it seems Gearset randomly assigns it to an existing webhook. For our recent deployment-only job, it…

Multiple sort columns for comparison results
It would be helpful to be able to sort comparison results on multiple columns (e.g. first by Metadata type, then by Name). Currently it seems that the results can only be sorted by one column at a time.

Share edit access to a CI job with another user
Currently, only the owner of a CI job is able to edit it. This is a risk, as the owner is not always available to troubleshoot CI issues. It would be helpful to be able to delegate edit access to other team members so that pipelines can be managed collaboratively.

Monitoring dashboard page hangs on loading
Often, if not always, when I first load up the monitoring dashboard it hangs on the loading wheel until I refresh. Doesn't appear to be a problem on any other page.

Attach specific Tests to Feature Branch Manually
I would like to have the ability to force a features jobs to run specific test(s) from the CI screen.
So if GS fails to detect a test class (either by error or b/c its not named in the expected convention) OR would have failed to catch breaking changes elsewhere, we can avoid/prevent this attaching a set of test classes to that feature branches deployment configuration in GS.

Soft delete of deployment History
When a person deletes a deployment history that was successfully deployed, it would be good if that deletion was only a Soft Delete and could be recovered within 90days.

Invoke Run Anonymous Apex against target in CI Job
Team,
Can you please add Run Anonymous Apex option in a CI Job ?Step#1
In this scenario from Developer's end they should add pre scripts in a.txt file and add post scripts in b.txt file in their Source ControlStep#2
How it should work
- It should allow the CI job to run Pre and Post Deployment scripts
- Pre Deployment scripts should be picked up from Source control a.txt file and Post
Deployment scripts should be picked up from Source control b.txt file
- Post commit the diff of commit should identify what are pre and post scripts…6 votes -
automatic pipeline deployment on successful validation
For Pipeline jobs, provide an optional feature (ability to toggle on/off) where if an Open PR has successfully validated on the target org, then auto deploy to target org. This is useful when propagating changes in downstream jobs. For example, once code review is done, a PR is merged into DEV by pipeline admin, but it should also automatically be merged and deployed into QA if the validation is successful.

Schedule Release Validation
We've run into ROW LOCK issues in the past while running unit tests during validations in production which caused some issues with external Community Users, thus as a best-practice we try to run production validations after business hours.
I'd like to be able to schedule release validations from Gearset, or expose an endpoint that would allow me to trigger a CI validation for a release or PR.

Update Deployment Functionality for Education Cloud Standard Picklist
Currently, Education Cloud standard picklist field values are able to be deployed to production. However, the deployment lacks the ability to define active or inactive picklist values. The workaround is to manually activate and deactivate these values after deployment.
This functionality was recently changed on 8/17/2023 for the Academic Session Season and Academic Session Type fields. Requesting the change to be made for all of these fields.

Add a date filtering mechanism on comparisons
. Currently we can select individual dates on the dropdown list or select from a select few "Last X days". Would be a great option to be able to set something like "See changes from X to Y" or "Select since X", especially useful given we have the dropdown selection on a per minute step, so the list gets very large, very quikcly.
For compliance checking, tracking who changes what when, periods of criticality (especially around new features coming in) or just for retrospectives.

Ignore line endings in pipelines conflict resolution
It would be useful if the pipelines conflict resolution tool ignored line endings. As at present if you have one file with LF line endings and another with CRLF it will show the whole file as different, where as that is not the case, it's just line endings. Most other devOps tools work in this way.
There is another idea to ignore whitespace in apex comparisons - but this should also be extended to conflict resolution.

Change Order of Steps for Data Deploys
When configuring a data deployment, currently "Planning Deployment Steps" is the last step, but this is where I often encounter the "Error while planning deployment" because of recursion/etc. That means I need to back up through the previous 4 steps, adjust, and then go BACK through the related objects, data masking, disable rules steps before it will try again.
The disable rules step in particular takes some time, making this a really tedious cycle to repeat.
I understand needing the related objects step before validating the deployment, but if the order changed to:
- Select Objects,
- Select Related Objects
- Plan Deployment…

Please introduce an external ID in the background as some other products do. This would make it flawless.
Without the external ID, your solution is time consuming and prone to troubleshooting errors.
