Using testing to deliver rapid business value with Data Vault

Details

Test-Driven Development (TDD) is commonly used in software development to produce reliable code that adheres to Business User requirements. Today, more organisations are using automation for their Data Warehouses. Adopting these principles can help accelerate processes by reducing errors, and helping to align with Business Users’ requirements.

Discover how Test-Driven Development in a Data Vault implementation can deliver business value to your organisation or clients. Drawing from real customer examples, you will see how Test-Driven Development can drive requirements, deliver value, and show compliance to users from the Business Intelligence teams and management to IT and security.

Chris will describe how to test cloud infrastructure, data loading patterns, data transformations, business rules, and many other aspects of the Data Vault 2.0 method. In addition, he will demonstrate how development and deployment frequency can be increased and become more efficient, leading to faster delivery of value.

This presentation will also cover the different layers and levels of testing, why we would test at these levels, and the value provided. Why not automate your tests as well? Chris will explain the fundamentals of automated testing and the benefits of continuous integration/ continuous deployment.
