Question about apex
Hi there...
1) I have created an apex class in my enterprise salesforce account, and I want to deploy it now to production. So I can use it on my visual force email...
How can I do that? I wouldnt need to test it would I?

You need to write a test class and use one of the migration tool (Change Set, Force.com IDE, Migration tool, etc.) Please see http://www.salesforce.com/us/developer/docs/apexcode/index_Left.htm#CSHID=apex_deploying.htm|StartTopic=Content%2Fapex_deploying.htm|SkinName=webhelp for more information.

ok thanks - so do I have to create a new apex class thats just a test of the same code? I dont understand... thx

Yes, you need to create a test class that test your code. There is a section on testing your code just before that deployin Apex section.

ok so i will create a new class using the same code and with the testing code...

Am I correct in understanding that you are asking if you need to copy over the code from your existing class into the test class? Answer is no. Your test class should just instantiate and call appropriate methods in your existing class.

Yes I need to test this class I made...
1) are you able to maybe show me a screen shot of how to do this? I dont understand
2) are you able to maybe show me a screenshot of how to deploy it as well? thx
public class FindunpaidInvoices {
private final List invoices;
public FindunpaidInvoices() {
invoices = [select Account__c, Invoice_Date__c, Balance_Due__c from Invoice_Consulting__c where Name = 'Unpaid'];
}
public List getUnpaidInvoices() {
return invoices;
}
}

For testing something like following would work for you. As for deployment, as I said there are many options and it is quite complicated process. Please refer to the link I provided and read up on it.

ok so just to confirm, i add that to my current class, underneath the code I wrote or above it?

That would be a new class, so a new file.
