dbt-unit-testing is a dbt package that allows writing unit tests for a model and its logic by mocking its dependencies.

Our teams use this package with Snowflake to practice test-driven development (TDD), although it was only feasible for simple transformations. The library certainly has rough edges when it comes to debugging failed test runs, but the ability to write unit tests on transformers as we develop the model provided a neat developer experience.

Thoughtworks acknowledges the Traditional Owners of the land where we work and live, and their continued connection to Country. We pay our respects to Elders past and present. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples were the world's first scientists, technologists, engineers and mathematicians. We celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders of all communities who also work and live on this land. 

 

As a company, we invite Thoughtworkers to be actively engaged in advancing reconciliation and strengthen their solidarity with the First Peoples of Australia. Since 2019, we have been working with Reconciliation Australia to formalize our commitment and take meaningful action to advance reconciliation. We invite you to review our Reconciliation Action Plan.
