Paul Fitzpatrick 22 Releasing Apex and Visualforce code using Change Sets to Production
I have successfully "pushed" Apex Class and Visualforce(VF) code changes via the Change Set
mechanism between different Sandboxes, tested and everything is working fine.
The closest I have managed to get to deploying Apex and VF changes to Production was uploading an Outbound Change Set to Production, and clicking 'VALIDATE' to the inbound Change Set in Production. The 'VALIDATE' operation worked fine reported no errors.
(I managed to overcome the issue(without help) with Apex Test Class coverage, as it is a requirement that tests run >74% if attempting to deploy Apex code to Production ). I have tested rigourously numerous Outbound Change Sets and Inbound Change sets involving Apex and VF between Sandboxes with no issues.
The only step I need to take now is to DEPLOY the Apex and VF code to Production. Is it safe to assume that if I have tested the Apex and VF rigorously in the source Sandbox Org, uploaded the Outbound CS(Containing Apex and VF) to Production, VALIDATE the Inbound CS (with no errors/issues to report) in Production, then the actual DEPLOY operation to Production should work without a problem as the deployment is an all-or-nothing(atomic) operation?
Can anyone please reassure me, need to perform the Release soon, this is quite urgent!
Thanks!

Yes this is an all-or-nothing(atomic) operation with Change set. Please assure, test coverage should be >=75% not 74%.
If the change set is validated successfuly in production, then it will surely not fail with existing state of production. You can be assured with the changes set.
Please make sure before deploying change set in production and after validation performed with the same, no other deployment was done in production. If so, then, reensure the change set by validating again as new deployment may affect your change set. You can find any deployment in Inbound Change Sets for production.
If all things are as expected, then you are ready to go and then change set will not fail while deployment.
