ETL Testing Training Description:

DW/BI/ETL Testing Training Course is designed for both entry-level and advanced
Programmers. The course includes topics related to the foundation of Data Warehouse with the
concepts, Dimensional Modeling and important aspects of Dimensions, Facts and Slowly
Changing Dimensions along with the DW/BI/ETL set up, Database Testing Vs Data Warehouse
Testing, Data Warehouse Workflow and Case Study, Data Checks using SQL, Scope of BI testing
and as a bonus you will also get the steps to set up the environment with the most popular ETL
tool Informatica to perform all the activities on your personal computer to get first hand practical
knowledge.
