Test Code Changes On Pull Requests

PreviousBuild and Test Models with New Source DataNextRe-executes the last dbt™ command from the point of failure

Last updated 1 month ago

Was this helpful?

This template creates a Bolt schedule that automatically executes dbt™ model builds and tests when a new pull request is opened against your main branch. It builds and tests only the models affected by your code changes in a temporary schema, ensuring data quality before merging into production.

Key Benefits

  • Automatically validate dbt™ model changes in a pull request

  • Build and test only modified models and their downstream dependencies

  • Run validation in a temporary schema to avoid impacting production

  • Get immediate feedback on pull request status through Paradime integration

Prerequisites

  • is connected to your data warehouse provider with a dedicated target named ci

  • is installed and authorize access to the dbt™️ repository used in Paradime. Not on GitHub? Check our for other Git Provider providers.

Default Configuration

Schedule Settings

Setting
Value
Explanation

Schedule Type

Turbo CI

Enables automated validation of pull request changes.

Schedule Name

turbo ci run

A descriptive name indicating the purpose of the schedule

Deferred Schedule

hourly run

Specifies the production schedule to compare against for state changes.

Git Branch

main

Uses your default production branch to ensure correct code comparison.

Command Settings

The template uses a single command optimized for pull request validation:

  • dbt build --select state:modified+ --target ci: This builds only the models that have been modified in the pull request, along with their downstream dependencies, in the "ci" target environment.

Trigger Type

  • Type: Scheduled Run (Cron)

  • Cron Schedule: OFF (This schedule will be triggered by a new pull request event, not a cron schedule)

Notification Settings

  • Email Alerts:

    • Success: Confirms models built and tested successfully

    • Failure: Alerts when models fail to build or tests fail

    • SLA Breach: Alerts if the run takes longer than 120 minutes

When to Customize

Tailor this template to your specific needs:

  • Adjust Deferred Schedule to the production schedule you want Turbo CI to compare against for state changes.

    • Hourly checks for frequent data updates (0 * * * *)

    • Daily checks for standard reporting (0 0 * * *)

  • Modify command settings with the dbt™ commands to suit your testing requirements, such as running specific model selectors or additional tests.

  • Add more notifications destinations (Slack, MS Teams) to match your team's workflows.

For custom Trigger configurations, see documentation.

For custom notification configurations, see documentation.

via the dbt generate_schema_name.sql macro to handle the temporary schema prefix.
