Automated Testing in QuickSight

How do you generate automated testing within QuickSight to test QuickSight dashboard data? Are there tools/AWS services that can do this? Can Amazon Q within QuickSight provide insights on how to do it? So far, Q can only provide visuals based on the data analysis. Or, are we still relegated to dumping the datasets to csv/Excel and manually checking it?

Hello @bertviloria, in order to test the data that is returned in the dashboards, we either dump the data out to Excel like you mentioned above or run queries directly against the database to ensure the values are correct.

I don’t think validating with Q would be the best route since you will be using the same dataset that is building the dashboard. That seems like a good way to miss the issue if it just validates the wrong answer.

Unfortunately, for the time being, the best way to validate data will be to do it manually. Since this is not available in QuickSight, I can tag this topic as a feature-request. Let me know if you have any further questions, otherwise I can archive this question for our support team. Thank you!
