The typical final product of the data analytics initiatives is reports and dashboards. In most cases, as long as the data platform is tested, there is no need for data testing of the data from the BI reports/dashboards. Data testing would be necessary for the complex dashboards and reports where there is a significant business logic embedded in the reporting layer.
Besides the data testing of BI reports/dashboards, there is a need for security testing, UI usability testing etc.
Rightdata is useful for data integrity, accuracy, completeness testing of the data from BI reports. RightData has capabilities to ingest data from the BI reports/dashboard. RightData natively connects to the popular BI reporting platforms like Tableau, SAP Business Objects Webi, SAP Bex, SSRS, Power BI and Qlik. By using these reports/dashboards as datasource, RightData can perform data comparison with its sources, validate data for the business rules adherence, comparing the output of one dashboard from one environment to other or compare two different kinds of dashboard output (e.g. compare Tableau workbook output to Qlik report output – in the report platform migration scenario).
