Optimizing test data coverage in functional testing

Data is a crucial element for the development and testing of any data-centric application, but its access might be restricted. In this talk, we discuss how to get faster and more secure access to data for testing purposes, by generating private data that (a) emulates the state of a dataset/database and (b) increases testing coverage. There are several tools available on OSS, but usually, the devil is in the detail.

Ton is going to cover the following topics:

• Accessing data for testing: the road from production data to synthetic data.
• Frameworks for measuring test data coverage.
• Enhancing your data engineering workflow with optimal data synthetization for functional testing.
