Pipeline FAQs

Gearset supports all the major Git hosting providers, including GitHub, GitLab, Bitbucket, Azure DevOps, and AWS CodeCommit.

Pipelines currently uses a model similar to the expanded branching strategy, which is designed to balance DevOps best practices and the requirements for most Salesforce development teams.

CI jobs are the individual tasks that make up a continuous integration and continuous delivery process. Each job builds, tests, and validates code every time changes are made. Gearset’s Pipelines brings together multiple CI jobs and enables end-to-end CI/CD pipeline visualization. It allows you to track pull requests, automatically sync orgs and enforce your desired branching strategy. Gearset Pipelines has a whole suite of functionality that makes management of CI jobs much easier.

Gearset supports all types that can be retrieved via Salesforce’s Metadata API.

Gearset’s unique merge algorithm understands Salesforce metadata, so unlike Git, it can differentiate between genuine conflicts and unnecessary conflicts. For example, sometimes conflicting changes within the same XML tag lead to the same behaviour in a Salesforce org. Your VCS will still consider it a conflict, whereas Gearset knows this doesn’t represent a genuine issue, so will automatically resolve the conflict. Merge conflicts happen less often in Gearset, and when they do occur, they indicate genuine issues.

Yes, Pipelines is available for the Starter, Teams and Enterprise tiers of Gearset’s Automate offering.
