Hi,

I have been reading about rules around at least 75% of code must be tested successfully before it can be moved to production.  My problem is I am imagining the process and I am sure by experimenting I will figure it out; however, when dealing with a production environment I do not like the idea of experiementing.

QUESTIONS:

1. When I move the class and the test class to production is it automically active code or do I have to activate it?
2. Do I have to keep the Test Class code in production all the time with the associate class?
3. If I have a class that has temporary variables in the class code just for testing so that I can get 100% code coverage then move it to production will I be able to comment those variables out in the test class and controller class after I move it to production? 

If the answer is no than I may need some help on how to test a class that I need to know the new record id.  The code below is a portion of the controller and the second code snippet is a portion of the test class that tests the controller.

CONTROLLER CLASS:

// This class clones an opportunity and all related partner records
public class OppCloneWithPartnerRecsController {
 
    //added an instance varaible for the standard controller
    private ApexPages.StandardController controller {get; set;}
     // add the instance for the variables being passed by id on the url
    private Opportunity opp {get;set;}
    
    // set the id of the record that is created -- ONLY USED BY THE TEST CLASS
    public ID newRecordId {get;set;}    
    // set the force error  
    public boolean forceError { get;set; }
    //-------------------------------------------- ONLY USED BY THE TEST CLASS

 
    // initialize the controller
    public OppCloneWithPartnerRecsController(ApexPages.StandardController controller) { 
        //initialize the stanrdard controller
        this.controller = controller;
        // load the current record
        opp = (Opportunity)controller.getRecord();       
    }
 

TEST CLASS:

...

        Test.startTest();

//        ext.forceError = false;

        
        // call the oppCloneWithPartners method
        PageReference ref = ext.oppCloneWithPartners();
        // create the matching page reference
        PageReference redir = new PageReference('/'+ext.newRecordId); 
 
        // make sure the user is sent to the correct url
        System.assertEquals(ref.getUrl(),redir.getUrl());
 
        // check that the new Opp was created successfully
       Opportunity newOpp = [select id from Opportunity where id = :ext.newRecordId];
        System.assertNotEquals(newOpp, null);
        // check that the line item was created
        List<Partner> newItems = [Select p.Id From Partner p where p.OpportunityId = :newOpp.id];
        System.assertEquals(newItems.size(),2);
 
        // Switch back to runtime context
        Test.stopTest(); 
    }
