Testing data warehouse projects can be extremely challenging due to the heterogeneous nature of data sources and large volumes of data. Based on our experience in implementing data warehouses and BI systems, we have come up with a set of best practices/patterns in testing which can minimize the risks associated with OBI projects. The methodology…
