ice breaker

updates from Paul on Snowfakery development

  • working on scalability for extremely large datasets quickly
  • participated in internal hackathon (currently outcomes are not public)
  • Q: Jung experimenting with Robot Test Framework for Membership Schema recipe
  • A: yes, you can invoke Snowfakery and/or the Faker library in Robot
  • Paul is working on a Snowfakery Syntax Schema so that VS Code can suggest errors - ETA mid October

testing protocol for recipes

  • Goal (1) help contributors write better recipes; (2) have protocol for how to validate recipe contributions
  • Jung wrote down the steps she takes to validate her own recipe
  • Ensure that the metadata and schema are in the target org
  • Good practice to automate the creation of testing orgs in CCI (scratch orgs)
  • We should create CCI flows and org shapes that align with certain use cases
  • Junette manages this with a personal copy of CumulusCI YML file with certain dependencies commented out
  • Sample Flows we might want: (1) NPSP (2) EDA (3) NPSP Plus (V4S, PMM, etc) (4) EDA Plus (5) sales cloud schema
  • Flows can combine and improve upon other existing flows

Steps look something like this:

  • Recipe syntax - is the YAML formatted properly (VS Code Schema and Github Actions can handle this)
  • Semantically correct (running code and look for logic errors) (Github Actions can handle this)
  • Salesforce rules - can you load it into an org? (Robot and Github Actions can handle this)
  • Common sense - does the data make sense and meet expectations?
