Introduction


This chapter provides solutions for a variety of situations that Visualforce developers are likely to encounter on a regular basis. Enhancing or replacing standard functionality with Visualforce enriches the user experience, improving user productivity and adoption. Visualforce also allows business processes to be highly systemized, guiding users through the creation and the ongoing management of data. Writing effective tests for Visualforce controllers is a key skill that allows developers to deploy Visualforce pages to production, and be confident that they will work as intended.
