SingleEmailMessage  &  MassEmailMessage  classes are provided by Salesforce, which can be used to send an email or email in bulk to the users. First of all we need to create a  Helper class ,we will call this class using Trigger, whenever the condition met, the trigger will call this Helper class, and all the stuffs whatever we are doing, will be in helper class. We are using an email template too. Here is the Helper class named  "HelperContactTrigger" public with sharing class HelperContactTrigger { //static method public static List  sendEmail(List  contacts) { //query on template object EmailTemplate et=[Select id from EmailTemplate where name=:'Sales: New Customer Email']; //list of emails List  emails = new List (); //loop for(Contact con : contacts){ //check for Account if(con.AccountId == null && con.Email != null){ //initiallize messaging method Messaging.SingleEmailMessage singleMail = new Messaging.SingleEmailMessa...

What is Apex Triggers ? A Trigger is Apex code that executes before or after the following types of operations: insert update delete merge upsert undelete Types of Apex Triggers Before Triggers: Before triggers can be used to update or validate record values before they are saved to the database. After Triggers: After triggers can be used to access field values that are set by the database (such as a record's Id or last Updated field), and to affect changes in other records, such as logging into an audit table or firing asynchronous events with a queue. Example : before insert, after insert, before update, after update, before delete, after delete Syntax of Trigger Important Points- Bulkify your Code : Use Looping through Trigger’s collections variables instead of process through particular indexing. All triggers are bulk triggers by default, and can process multiple records at a time. Bulk triggers can handle both single record updates and bulk ...

What is batch class? Batch class is just similar to Apex class except that batch class includes the Salesforce provide interface “Database.Batchable”. Why we use batch class? When we want to perform DML operations for bulk records or hit the web service then batch class comes in the picture. Database.Batchable interface contains three method. Start Execute Finish Start Method       global Database.QueryLocater start(Database.BatchableContext bc) {} Use this method to get the records from database or object to be passed to “Execute” method. This method returns Database.QueryLocater object that contains the records. Query fired in the start method will return maximum 5,000,0000 records in a transaction. Execute Method            global void execute(Database.BatchableContext bc , List  scope) {} This method is used for do all the processing for data. This method takes two arguments. A reference of Da...

 Concept - To Get some functionality working now and  improve or refactor it afterwards Hi Developers !!. This post is regarding   Test Driven Development   approach in Salesforce. Before going into any details or explanation about  "Test Driven Development in Salesforce" we need to know about (Test-Driven Development).  What is Test Driven Development (TDD) ?  Test Driven Development is an evolutionary approach to development which combines test - first development where you write a test code before  you write just enough production code to fulfill that test and  refactor (making code clearer, cleaner and elegant) . We can also say that TDD is a method of software development in which UNIT Testing is repeatedly done on source code. TDD is a method which will help us to get a better code in less time with no defects.  Benefits: There are many benefits of using Test Driven Development approach for software development.
