Run test in parallel using scratch orgs
CI job that run all test takes ages. Can we use scrach orgs and test suites to run test in parelell in multiple orgs?

Track Items Added to Draft Packages
It would be nice to be able to see which items within a comparison are part of Draft Packages. We have a need to build multiple packages from a single Comparison of Instances. This can be done by creating many Drafts, but it is sometimes difficult to know if items have been added to a draft package already. If we could visually see this, it would allow us to generate and confirm our packages much faster.

Org Management/Oversight Dashboard
I would really benefit from a dashboard option. A single place where I could see my CI Job history, Unit Testing Jobs and Monitoring/Backup history for all/a subset of my orgs.
I am using Gearset more and more to manage the state of my org's metadata, so it would be nice to be able to see it all in one place.

Skip CI Jobs to source control when there are no changes.
After setting up a CI job from a Salesforce sandbox to a Bitbucket repo, it looks like the CI job always runs a commit, even if there are no actual changes. It would be great to not have this happen to avoid having many commits where there are no actual changes.

Ability to set a friendly name to the package
Should it be possible to set an equivalent of "friendly name" in Gearset but one that can also be spread to Saleforfce.

test Monitoring overview - show "is running" + stats
On the Test Monitoring Overview page; you should be able to see at a glance whether the test is running and how many methods have run vs total
Reason this comes up is if you establish a Unit Test run for your developer sandbox org, then you can't run (some) tests from your IDE against the same org "ALREADYINPROCESS Test already enqueued"
A quick glance at the Test Monitoring Overview would tell you if you need to wait 1 minute vs 20 - and guide your activities accordingly

Trigger a data deployment from a CI job
When we pull down a version between our local and staging environments. We would like to also automatically pull in the testing data from another project.
As one of the things we are trying to setup is taking a version from Prod then running GhostInspector through our core flows. Ideally every 4 hours we take a backup from metadata + locked down actual data. Then run tests against it.

Support parallel testing during CI job
CI jobs use metadata API to deploy and run tests. The tests run serially. As such, CI jobs can take many minutes to execute
As an optional configuration for a CI job, and only if the CI is run against a non-PROD org...
- Deploy metadata using Metadata API
- Run tests using Tooling API (parallel testing)
- If tests fail, use MetaData API to rollback the deployment
Ideally, this can shave off 50% of the CI job time

Search for components within Profile should show results regardless of expansion of specific profiles
Use case on Difference Viewer:
search on `profilerecordtypevisibility' (or use metadata filter and check Profile: Record Type Visibility)
Results
Unless the difference viewer already has the Profile(s) expanded for their components, you get no resultsDesired behavior -- Search on components within Profile should show results; even if search takes longer

Allow XML package for org snapshot/daily monitoring
Allow XML package for org snapshot/daily monitoring. This is to take the previous day's design to be downloaded in xml format that we can open in eclipse IDE.

Suppress "changed on" datetimes in difference viewer where datetime is the same as the metadata retrieval datetime
The difference viewer will show Changed on values for the current datetime for certain metadata types - probably because SFDC is returning such a value when, in fact, the source didn't change at all
- Custom object
- Settings
- Standard valueset
- Workflow rules
displaying the current datetime of the compare run (i.e. the metadata retrieve datetime) is not helpful when trying to filter on changed date in the difference viewer (i.e. sort descending)

Better Targeted Static Code Analysis Feedback Surpression
Currently, if I want to suppress errors from static analysis, the suppression seems to be all-or-none at the class level.
I would prefer to suppress only the specific errors when they happen.
(e.g. in the method or in the line.)1 voteHi!
Our static code analysis is built on PMD. Currently, the only error suppression that works with Apex code in PMD is the `@SuppressWarnings` annotation. (This was introduced for Apex in PMD version 6.0.0). As you say, you can suppress all rules, or specific rules, at the class level, but can’t make more fine grained suppressions, unfortunately.
There are other methods of suppressing errors within PMD for other languages, but these don’t currently work with Apex. We’ll keep an eye on future versions of PMD to see if they introduce new methods of suppressing warnings for Apex code.

Please, please, please get US FedRAMP approval.
The ability to use this product for CI/CD and various other use cases in the US federal space would be a huge win for many agencies. I know the FedRAMP process is quite arduous, but the contractual potential here is pretty massive.

Extend Jira Cloud Integration to Releases and Bitbucket
We do the majority of our management via Jira and have it linked to Bitbucket and our test system so that we can manage everything via Jira. It would be great to extend the current integrations to more intelligently link the package to Jira tickets and the corresponding Bitbucket code and then push back to Jira the deployments in a more Jira friendly manner e.g. potentially creating/updating a Jira release for the deployment.

Improve detection of custom fields on Managed Package objects coming from Git
If I have a managed package object in Git, Gearset does not recognize it as managed package code in its comparison to a Salesforce org. This is a problem since it may not recognize a change if a custom field has been added to the managed package object.

Allow Monitoring Jobs on Source Code Repositories
Currently, Enterprise users can create monitoring jobs on sandboxes, so that they may be notified when a sandbox's metadata changes. It'd be great to be able to perform the same monitoring action against source code repositories (GitHub!).
An example use case would be detecting when undesired metadata types enter into the repository. This is important because CI jobs will fail on certain metadata types, so we want to ensure that they never make it into source to begin with. Additionally, our business has decided that some metadata types should never be captured into source.

Allow custom rules in PMD
PMD support is great, but it would also be useful to be able to have a set of custom rules for my team
e.g. we have a code library of classes that they ought to use instead of coding their own solutions every time. Some of these cases could be spotted by a PMD rule, so it would be great to be able to add my own rules for this.

Difference Viewer custom object name: include suffix __c, __x, __mdt, __e, etc
When you look in the Difference Viewer, it is not clear at all by inspection which line of Metadata Type "Custom Object" is a standard object, custom object, platform event, custom metadata type, historcial trending object, etc.
For example, Custom object Foo__c displays simply in the Name column as Foo. This is a loss of information in the difference viewer, especially if one has similarly-named custom object metadata types such as:
Fooc
Foose
FooConfig__mdtthese display as
Foo
Foos
FooConfigThe full Sobject Name gives the user hints as to perhaps other related components that need to be…

would be cool to be able to "ignore" certain differences
would be cool to be able to "ignore" certain differences... e.g. encryption. So if encryption is enabled in a Production Org but not in a Sandbox (not sure if Encryption is possible for SBs), you have a difference for every custom field <encrypted>true/false</encrypted> which is really irritating.

Enhance capabilities around 'co-administration'
In our organization we have a couple different salesforce admins that are administrating the salesforce development pipeline in which several developers are making changes and deploying them via gearset. Right now it seems cumbersome/duplicative to do this particularly around the area of adding a sandbox org and then managing permissions of the developers to that sandbox. It would be nice if there was a way for one admin to connect the sandbox, grant the other admin "Owner-level" access to it, and for the two admins to have a shared view of the user access to that org, so I can…
