Session Summary: The session provided a comprehensive overview of upcoming Apex innovations, focusing on security enhancements, runtime features, testing improvements, and roadmap updates. Key highlights included the shift to a 'secure by default' model, which ensures user-level access control through the introduction of user mode and the deprecation of 'with security enforced' for better field-level security. Additionally, new developer-friendly features like multi-line strings, template substitution methods, and integration tests were introduced to streamline code writing and testing processes. Future plans outlined included API version retirement, improved ISV tools for namespace shadowing and global deprecation, as well as elastic limits for Async Apex to prevent system failures under high workloads.
Key Takeaways:
• The new 'secure by default' model enforces user-level security by default, requiring developers to explicitly declare system-level permissions when needed.
• Integration tests will allow developers to validate end-to-end scenarios, including interactions with agents, Data Cloud, and field history, by enabling explicit transaction control and side effects in sandbox environments.
• Elastic limits for Async Apex, launching as a beta in Summer '26, will provide a more flexible response to daily limits, allowing queues to process jobs up to 2x the limit with throttling instead of immediate failures.
