Data & Analytics United: Certified Data & Analytics Tester(DAU CDAT) is a 2-day interactive certification course to help you learn how to utilize embedded structured testing in order to reach and improve the quality goals of your everyday work. The training has been designed for anyone looking to improve the quality of the (big) data that is used in your data and analytics projects.
A Certified Data & Analytics Tester is not only able to define a vision and test strategy, but also apply it to an efficient test approach in data-oriented environments and projects. They are also familiar with the accompanying essential test specification techniques.
Successful DAU-CDAT participants can distinguish between different data quality attributes, measure these differences and apply essential data profiling techniques. They will also understand the intricate privacy aspects of the data that is associated with the given test environments and apply this to their data and analytics testing.
After having drawn a common view on the world of Data & Analytics by exploring the concepts of Business Intelligence, Data Warehousing and Data & Analytics, we’ll dive into testing and test processes, focussing on the specifications required when testing data and analytics solutions.
We’ll explore Risk Based Testing and the special skills that are required testers dealing with data and analytics.
We will tackle the concept of how to test reports and dashboards, completeness, data quality as well as testing business rules and ETL (extract-, transform and load).
We will explore differences between data & analytics testing and conventional testing, the specifics of Test Environments when dealing with Data & Analytics, Test Data, Ethics and Privacy Law (e.g. GDPR).
Participants learn how to apply Data Profiling in order to create better test cases and to cover the most relevant Data Quality attributes.

lean coffee or lean pizza event

To this end, for all our 4- and 5-day courses we offer an in-depth session on one morning or evening, including catering. The participants jointly agree whether they would prefer to get up earlier or stay later, and which topics they would prefer to explore in greater depth with our coach in an informal atmosphere.

Breaks are always spent outside the classrooms. After all, a change of scene is a key element to then being able to once more concentrate on the course content. And we of course also provide a sufficient supply of hot and cold drinks, as well as the necessary nerve-soothing snacks. Is there anything else we can help you with? Then please let us know! We make many things possible.
