What you deploy is a list of models (or, more precisely, packages) compiled to binaries, such as DLL files. You don't deploy individual objects. Note that you can build an older version of the application, or use branching to work on two distinct versions in parallel.

Also, deploying untested code would be a bad idea. First create the version you want to deploy, then deploy it to a test environment and test it. If successfull, apply the same package to production. Microsoft forces you to do that, at least formally (you must deploy your deployable package to a sandbox environment to get the "release candicate" status).

First of all, I hope you already have source control (Azure DevOps) set up. If not, please start by doing it.

Next, you need to have two branches in ADO - for example DEV and MAIN.

You can build&deploy code from DEV branch to your "dev-test" system. Once they are tested, you can merge those changesets to MAIN branch, and build&deploy the MAIN branch code to your UAT system. Finally, once you've happy with the UAT version you will install the UAT package to Prod.

This topic (dev ALM) is quite big, so I suggest you to try to search for documentation, discussions and blogs to gain some understanding. If you have specific questions after that, you can post new questions on this forum.

This might be the best blog about the topic, covering more or less everything you need: https://ariste.info/en/msdyn365-azure-devops-alm/

Here's some official training material: https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/learn/modules/application-lifecycle-finance-operations/

As I wrote earlier, it's good to search the web yourself, I'm sure you will find plenty of useful stuff.
