What Will I Learn?

• Write Apex triggers that execute before or after specific database events (e.g., insert, update, delete).
• Use Apex triggers to perform custom actions such as validating data, updating related records, and sending emails.
• How to write Apex test methods that test your Apex triggers and classes.
• How to use the @testSetup annotation to create test data that can be used by multiple test methods in an Apex test class.

Requirements

• Familiarity with the Salesforce platform and the data model. This could include an understanding of objects, fields, relationships, and the Salesforce user interface.
• Basic programming skills. While Apex is a proprietary language, it is similar to Java and C# in many ways. Familiarity with concepts such as variables, loops, and control structures will be helpful.
• Experience with the Salesforce development environment, including the use of the Developer Console.

Target audience

• Salesforce administrators who want to learn how to write custom code to automate business processes or to perform custom actions when data is changed in Salesforce.
• Software developers who are familiar with other programming languages and want to learn how to develop custom solutions on the Salesforce platform.
• Anyone who is preparing for the Salesforce Platform Developer I certification exam, as Apex triggers and test classes are covered in the exam.
• Anyone who is interested in learning how to write custom code on the Salesforce platform and ensure that it is working correctly would benefit from taking an Apex triggers and test classes course.
