What you’ll learn

Production-grade pipelines require unit tests to guarantee their robustness. Delta Live Tables lets you track your pipeline data quality with expectation in your table.

These expectations can also be leveraged to write integration tests, making robust pipelines.

In this demo, we’ll show you how to test your DLT pipeline and make it composable, easily switching input data with your test data.

 

To install the demo, get a free Databricks workspace and execute the following two commands in a Python notebook

%pip install dbdemos
import dbdemos
dbdemos.install('dlt-unit-test')
