dbt-expectations

dbt-expectations is an extension package for dbt, inspired by the Great Expectations package for Python. The intent is to allow dbt users to deploy GE-like tests in their data warehouse directly from dbt, vs having to add another integration with their data warehouse.

Install

dbt-expectations currently supports dbt 1.0.x.

Check dbt Hub for the latest installation instructions, or read the docs for more information on installing packages.

Include in packages.yml

packages:
  - package: calogica/dbt_expectations
    version: [">=0.5.0", "<0.6.0"]
    # <see https://github.com/calogica/dbt-expectations/releases/latest> for the latest version tag

For latest release, see https://github.com/calogica/dbt-expectations/releases

Dependencies

This package includes a reference to dbt-date which in turn references dbt-utils so there's no need to also import dbt-utils in your local project.

Note: we no longer include spark_utils in this package to avoid versioning conflicts. If you are running this package on non-core platforms (outside of Snowflake, BigQuery, Redshift, Postgres), you will need to use a package like spark_utils to shim macros.

For example, in packages.yml, you will need to include the relevant package:

  - package: dbt-labs/spark_utils
    version: <latest or range>

And reference in the dispatch list for dbt_utils in dbt_project.yml:

vars:
    dbt_utils_dispatch_list: [spark_utils]

Variables

The following variables need to be defined in your dbt_project.yml file:

vars:
  'dbt_date:time_zone': 'America/Los_Angeles'

You may specify any valid timezone string in place of America/Los_Angeles. For example, use America/New_York for East Coast Time.

Integration Tests (Developers Only)

This project contains integration tests for all test macros in a separate integration_tests dbt project contained in this repo.

To run the tests:

  1. You will need a profile called integration_tests in ~/.dbt/profiles.yml pointing to a writable database. We only support postgres, BigQuery and Snowflake.
  2. Then, from within the integration_tests folder, run dbt build to run the test models in integration_tests/models/schema_tests/ and run the tests specified in integration_tests/models/schema_tests/schema.yml

Available Tests

expect_row_values_to_have_data_for_every_n_datepart

Expects model to have values for every grouped date_part.

For example, this tests whether a model has data for every day (grouped on date_col) between either:

  • The min/max value of the specified date_col (default).
  • A specified test_start_date and/or test_end_date.
    • if test_start_date or test_end_date are not specified, min/max of date_col are used, respectively

Note: test_end_date is exclusive (e.g. a test with test_end_date value of '2020-01-05' will pass for a model's max date_col of '2021-01-04').

Applies to: Model, Seed, Source

tests:
    - dbt_expectations.expect_row_values_to_have_data_for_every_n_datepart:
        date_col: date_day
        date_part: day # (Optional. Default is 'day')
        row_condition: "id is not null" # (Optional)
        test_start_date: x # (Optional. Replace 'x' with a date. Default is 'None')
        test_end_date: y # (Optional. Replace 'y' with a date. Default is 'None')

The interval argument will optionally group date_part by a given integer to test data presence at a lower granularity, e.g. adding interval: 7 to the example above will test whether a model has data for each 7-day period instead of for each day.
