Create reusable Test Cases / Test Case Template.

[DovileKr]

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Data Quality. Currently I have to create a test case for each table or column even if I am testing for the same things. For example:

1. Email or Date format with Regex
2. Columns across different systems and tables only containing values of valid customer types. To have to recreate the same test logic for the identical test case is time consuming.

Describe the solution you'd like It would be very convenient to be able to set Template Test Cases and then simply chose like

1. must - instead of selecting a test definition one can select a predefined test case template "email format" or "customer group".
2. should - from a test case template - choose columns/tables.
3. nice - select tables and columns based on their tags. For example tag columns with "email" and then one is able to run test case template across all columns tagged - "email" or columns tagged with a glossary term "customer group".

One added benefit of this would be being able to track the DQ of the same logical attribute across systems. For example: to see the quality of "customer group" attribute, I could look into the quality results for the template test cases, rather than individual test cases. Even if they are done as part of different Test Suites. Really good view for Data Stewards.

Describe alternatives you've considered Just an idea

hello, do we have any plans for this enhancement?

In my case we are reconciliating 2 different sources for a machine learning model training and inference respectively. The two tables will have different lineages, but we want them to conform to the same suite of checks / tests / constraints.

Having reusable test cases - or being able to reflect the tests of one table onto another - would be a big helper for us.
