When deploying just a Visualforce page, don't automatically run Apex tests
When deploying just a Visualforce page via a Salesforce change set, the default option is to not run Apex tests. Gearset should mimic that default behavior.
2 votesThanks for the feedback Rob, this is now live in the app and we’ll default to the standard Salesforce behaviour

Refresh comparison
In the Deployments > Comparison History view, there is currently the action to "View Comparison" but it would also be nice to have a "Refresh Comparison" button next to it.

Support Wave Analytics Metadata
We have been engaging in quite a few Salesforce Analytics (ie. Wave Analytics, Einstein Analytics or whatever the current branding label) projects lately. Version control on all of the related metadata is critical it would be enormously beneficial for Gearset to be able to support these metadata elements.
The following Analytics metadata types are supported in the Metadata API:
WaveApplication
WaveDashboard
WaveDataflow
WaveDataset
WaveLens
WaveXmd
WaveTemplateBundlePlease consider adding this to the roadmap for immediate consideration!
Best regards,
Mike1 voteThis has been shipped and we’ve written up an overview of the feature: https://gearset.com/blog/gearset-and-einstein-analytics-deploy-wave-applications-with-ease

When exporting from the comparison reports page, the currently selected items should show in the export
Today when you are on a comparison results screen there is an export button that will export the entire list of comparison results to a csv. However the current export does not include a column indicating items that have been selected for the current deployment. Having this column would help in reviewing the list of data outside of gearset.

Add webhooks for VSTS (like BitBucket and GitHub)
You offer webhooks for BitBucket and GitHub source control branches (so you can build on-demand if the repository is updated). We use VSTS Git at our organization and this functionality would be really useful for us!
VSTS offers webhook functionality-- see here: https://www.visualstudio.com/en-us/docs/marketplace/integrate/service-hooks/services/webhooks
Please give it a chance!

Please add support for the LeadConvertSettings metadata.

Allow multiple ownership in Gearset
Currently only the creator (owner) of Schedule Test, Monitor Orgs and Manage Orgs can edit these activities. It would be helpful if we could designate more than 1 Owner for these activities. Similar to granting access to the various orgs (Comparison, Validation& Deployment) it makes sense to also include an Owner access as well.
If this is not possible, having a transfer ownership button would be helpful for each activity.
Thanks!

The filter does not allow you to drill down into the Custom Objects, we have approx 300 objects this takes considerable time to run for the
Filter on Custom Objects prior to running a comparison similar to Salesforce Change Set, select the required object and fields to compare
3 votesGearset now has support for advanced filtering, prior to kicking off the comparison.
You can select components within an individual metadata type and save that as a common filter for your team to use. You can read more on our blog: https://gearset.com/blog/fine-tune-your-org-comparisons-with-advanced-metadata-filters
Thanks for reporting and I hope you find this useful!

Add button to go from validation package to comparison
Use-case is where we have validated a package, but not been able to deploy it before expiry. Eventually, we are able to deploy it...
At this point, I'd like to be able to go from my validation package in the history straight to a comparison with the same objects selected. Then, I'll be able to make sure everything still looks good and validate/deploy again.

create branch
It would be nice to be able to check Salesforce changes into a new branch in Github (or other git repos). This would provide admins an easy entry point for their changes into a git repo without having to learn the esoteric git command structure.

Can't navigate away from Validation in Progress
When I have a deployment or validation in progress, I can click on the main navigation but the page doesn't actually navigate to the target page.
The URL will change in the address bar, but other than that, nothing happens. If we shouldn't be navigating away from the validation progress page during a validation, please include a message in the UI explaining as much and disable the navigation (or have it open in a new window / tab).1 vote -
Live chat button overlays action button
Not sure how you resolve this one without moving either button. Maybe do something similar to what is done in the Diff view (where the action buttons are displayed in a row below the content).
Another option would be to have the live chat in the header navigation to toggle the feature on / off?
Not sure...Just noticed that it gets in the way sometimes.
4 votesWe’ve now made sure that the Live Chat button doesn’t appear on top of any of our action buttons.
Let us know if you see this one creep back in!

Clone package dialog: run comparison button slow to respond and provides no feedback
When you click Run Comparison, there is no immediate positive feedback to the user that the button was clicked and Gearset is working. You don;t get any feedback until the screen is refreshed with the Comparison progress - and this can take 5+ seconds

Objects in deployment report did not deploy - Various Custom Translations
Hey guys -
I am experiencing an issue where i am selecting various custom translations to deploy and the deployment report states deployed, but they are coming up in a new compare and have not been deployed in reality.
These custom translations are recommended to be removed from the deployment in the fixes / recommendations screen. However, i deselect the objects in order to deploy them. Then both validation and deployment succeeds w/ said objects in the deployment report.
Maybe it's something i am doing wrong? I could get on a call to discuss my scenario and run through it…

Ability to schedule deployment past "expiration date"
We sometimes want to schedule a deployment a week or more away. After validating a package, the app has all the information it needs to deploy it, regardless of whether or not the validation expired in SFDC.

Filter comparions by date since x
The current functionality for filtering by date is welcomed, but I would like to suggest the ability to filter by date range.
Just some examples:
Date >= x
Date <= x
Date >= x and <= y2 votesGearset now has the ability for custom data ranges using a date picker, which should allow you to filter to all the examples that you’ve shown.

Add context to the subject line for Gearset Deployment completed
The email to the submitter of a deployment has a subject line with no context. It reads: "Your deployment has finished"
Be great if it would say "Your deployment from <source name> to <target name> has finished". Especially helpful when user is manipulating many orgs and has to rapidly scan inbox.
2 votesWe’ve updated the emails to now include the orgs which were involved in the deployments.

Warn when deploying objects without profile settings
I build a VF page, test it, deploy it and discover much later that I forgot to add profiles other than system admin to the page. Users can't see the page and get a permissions denied error.
So, the suggestion is to have a an optional analyzers that warns when deploying a new VF page to a target org where the only permission is System Admin. While this could be legit in some use cases, in most use cases, this is a self-inflicted omission.

Remember last used Custom Filter, or set a Default Filter
It would be nice to be able to set a default custom filter.
Since the default "Default comparison" filter doesn't suffice for me.15 votesGearset will now remember the last used comparison filter.

Improve formatting of the XML pushed to git
Is it possible to improve the formatting of the XML?
The XML returned from MavensMate is formatted better.It's mainly just missing new-lines.
2 votesWe’ve made a bunch of improvements to the XML formatting this year, including tidying up which namespaces are included and having more consistent indentation and newline behaviour.
As always, we love feedback on the changes we’re making so please submit another idea if there is still improvements we can make in this area!
Thanks,
Kevin
