ETL Testing
ETL stands for “Extract-Transform-Load” and it is a process of how data is loaded from the source system to the data warehouse; the data is extracted from a transaction database, transformed to match the requirements of the data warehouse, and then loaded into the data warehouse database.

Data Warehouse (DW)
A database that is designed for query and analysis rather than for transaction processing. It is constructed by integrating the data from multiple heterogeneous sources, enabling a company or organization to consolidate data from several sources and separate analysis workload from transaction workload.

Build Validation Testing (BVT)
Build Verification Test is a set of tests run on every new build to verify that build is testable before it is released to test team for further testing. These test cases are core functionality test cases that ensure the application is stable and can be tested thoroughly.

BI Report Testing
BUSINESS INTELLIGENCE (BI) is the process of gathering, cleansing, analyzing, integrating and sharing data to derive actional insights that drive business growth. Business Intelligence Testing or BI testing verifies the staging data, ETL process, BI reports and ensures the implementation is correct. BI Testing ensures data credibility and accuracy of insights derives from the BI process.
