In Part IX of the Agentforce series, we explore how to accelerate Agentforce development using Salesforce CLI, Testing Center, and Visual Studio Code. The Salesforce CLI allows developers to create and manage Agentforce projects directly from the command line, simplifying deployment and configuration tasks. Visual Studio Code enhances this workflow with a powerful UI, extensions, and integrated terminal for executing CLI commands efficiently.

Testing Center plays a crucial role in validating Agentforce components, supporting both manual test creation and GenAI-powered batch testing for faster coverage. Together, these tools enable developers to build, test, and iterate on Agentforce with speed and accuracy. You’ll learn how to set up your local environment, generate metadata, push changes to orgs, and run tests—all within a consistent DevOps flow.

Whether you're building new agent features or validating core logic, this toolchain forms the foundation for scalable, automated development on Salesforce.
