Migrated Data Testing Tool (MDTT)

Tests

This tools helps you to verify the quality of your migrated data.

Installation

composer require --dev axelerant/mdtt

Usage

Basically you follow these steps:

  1. Specify test specifications
  2. Specify test definitions
  3. Optionally, specify transform plugins
  4. Run the tests

You can find the basic template for the tool usage here.

Test specification

Specify the test specification inside the directory tests/mdtt. The specification must be written inside the spec.php. Below is a sample specification:

<?php

return [
    'databases' => [
        // Source database credentials
        'source_db' => [
            'database' => "db_drupal7",
            'username' => "db",
            'password' => "db",
            'host' => "127.0.0.1",
            'port' => "59002",
        ],
        // Destination database credentials
        "destination_db" => [
            'database' => "db",
            'username' => "db",
            'password' => "db",
            'host' => "127.0.0.1",
            'port' => "59002",
        ],
    ],
    'http' => [
        // JSON datasource basic authentication credetials
        'source' => [
            'username' => 'username',
            'password' => 'fubar',
            // Basic authentication protocol: basic, digest, or ntlm.
            // Protocol is optional. If not mentioned, basic is considered.
            'protocol' => 'ntlm',
        ],
        'destination' => [
            'username' => 'username',
            'password' => 'puffball',
        ]
    ]
];

Test definitions

The test definitions are written in yaml format, and must be present inside the directory tests/mdtt. Let's say that you want to validate the migrated user data. Create a file called validate_users.yml. The name of the file doesn't matter.

Database

# Test definition ID
id: validate_users
# Test definition description
description: Validates users
# Group to which this test belongs to
group: migration_validation
# The query used for generating the source dataset
source:
  type: database
  data: "select * from users"
  # The source database credentials
  database: source_db
# The query used for generating the destination dataset
destination:
  type: database
  data: "select * from users_field_data"
  # The destination database credentials
  database: destination_db
# Test cases
tests:
  -
    # Field from source datasource used in this comparison
    sourceField: name
    # Field from destination datasource used in this comparison
    destinationField: name
  -
    sourceField: mail
    destinationField: mail

JSON

Consider that the data is exposed by the source legacy system in the following format:

{
      "jsonapi": {
        "version": 1.2,
      },
      "results": [
        {
          "employee": {
              "id": 3453,
              "info": {
                "name": "Aloy",
                "email": "[email protected]",
                "gender": "female",
                "status": "active"
              }
          }
        },
        {
          "employee": {
              "id": 3452,
              "info": {
                "name": "Varl",
                "email": "[email protected]",
                "gender": "male",
                "status": "active"
              }
          }
        },
        {
          "employee": {
              "id": 3450,
              "info": {
                "name": "Rost",
                "email": "[email protected]",
                "gender": "male",
                "status": "inactive"
              }
          }
        }
      ]
    }

Consider that the destination new system exposes data in the following format:

      "jsonapi": {
        "version": 1.2,
      },
      "results": [
        {
            "id": 3453,
            "name": "Aloy",
            "email": "[email protected]",
            "gender": "female",
            "status": "active"
        },
        {
            "id": 3452,
            "name": "Varl",
            "email": "[email protected]",
            "gender": "male",
            "status": "active"
        },
        {
            "id": 3450,
            "name": "Rost",
            "email": "[email protected]",
            "gender": "male",
            "status": "active"
        }
      ]
    }

Transform plugin

There could be a scenario where instead of directly storing the data from source, it must be transformed in some way (say, whitespaces must be stripped) before storing it in the destination database. A QA engineer can write their own plugin, to validate the business logic that does the transformation.

The test case would look like this:

tests:
  -
    sourceField: name
    transform: trim
    destinationField: name

The QA engineer must specify the plugin class inside tests/mdtt/src/Plugin/Transform. The file name (and, class name) must be same as the plugin name mentioned in the test case with the first character in upper case, i.e. Trim. The plugin class must implement \Mdtt\Transform\Transform interface.

<?php

// File location: tests/mdtt/src/Plugin/Transform/Trim.php.

class Trim implements \Mdtt\Transform\Transform
{
    /**
     * @inheritDoc
     */
    public function name(): string
    {
        // Specifies the plugin name.
        // This must be unique, if you have multiple plugin definitions.
        // The same plugin name must be mentioned in the test case.
        return "trim";
    }

    /**
     * @inheritDoc
     */
    public function process(mixed $data): mixed
    {
        // The logic that does the transformation.
        return trim($data);
    }
}

Run tests

./vendor/bin/mdtt run

Verbose mode

./vendor/bin/mdtt run -vvv

You can view all available options by doing this:

./vendor/bin/mdtt run --help

Specify email where notification will be sent when test completes

Logs

By default, the log files are created inside directory called logs. The directory will be present in the root of the test suite. The log files are named based on the datetime when the test is executed.
