 In the change set model, the source of truth is a combination of the metadata already in the environment and the content of your change set, as you stated correctly. However, a change set cannot be retrieved from the developer’s workbench as a package, nor can it be pushed into the version control system. Change sets are only available within the Salesforce UI, and they are not compatible with version control systems. In the package development model, the source of truth is the metadata in the package project, which makes it easy to integrate to a version control system, as you stated correctly. Additionally, in the package development model, the best practice is to consider the dependencies and build them into the package so it can be deployed in any other target orgs. This ensures that the package is self-contained and does not rely on external components that may not exist in the target org.

 The following issues could be affecting their deployment times:

The number and complexity of Apex tests will have a large impact on the deployment time, as the tests will take longer to run and consume more resources.

Some components such as profiles, custom junction objects, and fields take longer to process than others, as they have more dependencies and validations to check.

Users are working in the org during deployment can affect users and the deployment, as they can lock records or metadata components that are being deployed, causing errors or delays.

Creating an unmanaged package of the app and deploying it in NTO’s org is the best option for having ETO’s Sales Optimization app in NTO’s Salesforce org in the shortest possible time. An unmanaged package is a collection of components that can be easily installed and customized in another org. Unlike a managed package, an unmanaged package does not have any restrictions or dependencies on the source org, and does not require a security review or approval from Salesforce. Creating a managed package, creating users in ETO’s org, or building the app from scratch in NTO’s org are not as fast or efficient as creating an unmanaged package.

 The best release strategy for creating a new report to support an urgent client request is to utilize the daily release process. The daily release process is designed for small and quick changes that do not require extensive testing or approval. The daily release process can create the report directly in a full sandbox and then deploy it to production. The major and minor release processes are more suitable for large and complex changes that require more testing and approval. The major and minor release processes should not create the report directly in production, as this may cause errors or conflicts.

To reduce deployment time, UC can use the following strategies:

Use recent deployment validations and the quick deploy feature, which can allow them to skip the validation step in production and deploy the changes faster, if they have already validated the changes in a sandbox within the last four days.

Specify the test to run by using RunSpecifiedTests test level, which can allow them to run only the tests that are relevant to the components being deployed, instead of running all the tests in the org.

Testing load considering 50% more call volume is a reasonable test load consideration, as it can simulate the expected future growth and ensure that the application can handle the increased demand without compromising the performance or functionality.

Allowing no code/configuration changes directly in the production org and using Metadata API to automate deployment to the production org are two options that will streamline the process. These options help to enforce a consistent and controlled deployment process that avoids manual errors and conflicts in the production org.

The only condition that would make continuous integration unsuitable for UC is if their Salesforce instance has only standard functionality, as this would mean that there is no need for code deployment or version control. Option A is not a valid reason, as test scripts can be generated and executed as part of the continuous integration process. Option B is not a valid reason, as a full sandbox is not a requirement for continuous integration, and other types of sandboxes can be used instead. Option D is not a valid reason, as there are free or low-cost software tools available for continuous integration, such as Jenkins, Git, and Ant
