I'm looking to deploy my code using sfdx, these are the steps I'm going to take:

Retrieve code from sandbox:

sfdx force:source:retrieve -m MetadataType:ClassName,MetadataType:ClassName_Test -u YourSandboxOrgAlias

Deploy code to production:

sfdx force:source:deploy -m MetadataType:ClassName,MetadataType:ClassName_Test -l RunAllTests -r ClassName_Test -u YourProdOrgAlias

So I tried typing in the first command and pressed enter:

sfdx force:source:retrieve -m MetadataType:OnSiteActivityControllerTest.cls,MetadataType:OnSiteActivityController.cls -u Staging

but got 'No results found'.

Please advise.

Also, can you please review the steps above and let me know if they are syntactically correct?

  • Note in the 2nd code block, the -l RunAllTests will run all tests, and you don't need to specify the -r ClassName_Test. If you only want to run specific tests, used -l RunSpecifiedTests – Brian Miller Feb 25 '20 at 12:13
  • Thanks @BrianMiller, how can I run only the local tests? same as choosing 'Default' when deploying a change set – Json Feb 25 '20 at 12:37
  • nevermind found the answer, i should be RunLocalTests – Json Feb 25 '20 at 12:40

If you see the below command:-

sfdx force:source:retrieve -m MetadataType:OnSiteActivityControllerTest.cls,MetadataType:OnSiteActivityController.cls -u Staging

you have not defined the metadata type name. If you are retriving the apex class, the metadata name would be ApexClass, so the correct command would be:-

sfdx force:source:retrieve -m ApexClass:OnSiteActivityControllerTest,ApexClass:OnSiteActivityController -u Staging

Also, .cls extension is not required while retrieving.

Reference:- source:retrieve
