Using AI Test Class

Written for the Old UI

Overview

This article explains how to use the AI Test Class Creator to automatically generate a Salesforce test class for the selected component. Once generated, you can review and commit the test class as a new component to the branch.

Since deploying components to Salesforce typically requires sufficient test coverage, the AI Test Class Creator helps accelerate test coverage by:

• Improving deployment readiness by adding missing test coverage.
• Reducing deployment failures caused by insufficient or failing tests.
• Standardizing baseline test patterns across teams.
• Accelerating delivery by reducing manual test scaffolding effort.

Default AI Limitations

By default, Flosum provides a free shared DeepSeek AI model for DevOps through DeepSeek’s API. Because it is shared across tenants, performance and availability depend on system load and token capacity. During heavy usage, you may see higher latency or temporary errors. To avoid this, you can add your own custom AI model. See the following article.

• Adding a Custom AI Model

Best Practices

• Review the generated test data setup to ensure it matches your organization’s validation rules and required fields.
• Ensure the test class follows your team’s naming conventions and deployment standards.
• When possible, commit test classes separately to keep changes easy to review and track.
