Hi Mahesh,

You need to run the query in DB/ETL and test the same at reporting level.

for e.g-> you have created a report for Countrywise sales for 2013, so when you click IND for 2013,you see your sales value.

select sales_value from DB where Country_Code='IND' AND Year_CD=2013;

likewise run same query in your corresponding DB.Create a testplan for them.

Thanks.

I have not used any third party tool for testing ,

We have done manual testing only.

But I think there are tools as Jmeter etc which can help you aout in automated testing as

Jmeter provides facilities for Performance tests, Mail tests , TCP, DB tests via JDBC etc.

If any body have used , please share your experiences.

it would be a great help.

Hi Mahesh,

Generally no need separate test, Development commonly doing manual test only.
