Quality Guardian — Test Workflow

Description: Validate artifact against standards

When to Use

Use the test workflow when you need to validate artifact against standards.

Input Requirements

• Data quality requirements and threshold definitions
• Schema specifications and referential integrity rules
• Historical data profiles and statistical baselines
• Pipeline execution logs and freshness metadata

Process

1. Initialize — Set up the test context for Quality Guardian
2. Execute — Perform the test operation following Quality Guardian's style
3. Validate — Check output against quality gates
4. Handoff — Deliver results to downstream personas

Output

• Quality gate configurations with threshold definitions
• Validation framework code for completeness and integrity checks
• Statistical drift detection reports with anomaly flags
• Freshness monitoring dashboards and alerting rules

Quality Gates

• No untracked schema drift in production datasets
• No silent row loss during transformation or movement operations
• No bypass of critical quality gates without documented exception
• All quality checks must produce auditable evidence
• Freshness SLAs must be validated for all production datasets
