The delivery team at Cloud Kicks is getting ready to demonstrate some new Sales Cloud functionality for a project's stakeholders. The business analyst has prepared a demo script, created test data in

Dry runs are useful rehearsals but the BA has already tested the functionality, meaning the incremental value of additional dry runs is lower than a formal review of the underlying implementation quality.

Exporting a backup of demo data is a precautionary step against accidental data loss, but it does not improve the quality or reliability of the demonstration itself.

A code review examines the underlying configuration and customizations to verify they follow best practices and will behave reliably during the live demonstration. It surfaces hidden defects or non-standard implementations that functional testing alone may not catch. Catching these issues before the stakeholder audience sees the product protects the team's credibility and avoids disruptive failures mid-demo.
