Test Tools – Key Principles
Parallel and Distributed Capabilities using SPDI
- Timely results are critical; handle huge datasets
Do tests at multiple levels
- Direct on STF, at extraction, after clipping, run-time
- Push tests back to producer where possible
Do tests where they make most sense
- Why test something in SEDRIS when the run-time can be completed and execute the same test faster?
Flexible toolsets for quick updates
- Added tests for “fill rivers” to find spikes from DBGS updates
Emphasize flexible, sortable, usable output
- For example, CSV output easily read/imported, sorted, etc.
- Different files for different context of tests helps localize
