I need some information regarding if someone worked/implemented successfully Test Driven Development in Talend using Agile Methodology.
We have a new project underway and the client is insisting on using Test Driven Development.
Need some suggestions..

Suppose we want to read a data from Json file or excel file and load into Vertica Database.
How can we design and develop job for the above using TDD. and how different it is from our general approach.

Thanks

Hi Akhilesh,
For such type of example... it is expected that after designing ETL job, you provide possible combinations of input file with varying data and data type and check the proper working of the job... if it passes all the test cases, then it means that your ETL design is working fine... for any use case if your job fails, this indicates that you need improvement in the job...
This TDD is not like java programming code testing...

For above scenario... put multiple files in same folder for various test scenarios verify execution.
