Count Yes/No responses over 3 day time period. Return "Pass" if 3 consecutive 'Yes'. 'Fail' if not.

I have a table for test results with columns as follows:

 

Test Date / Metric / Source Value / Target Value / Difference / Pass/Fail 

 

A test passes if the difference is 0. There are multiple tests over time for the same metric. 

 

I want to count if a metric has 'Pass' in the Pass/Fail column consecutively every 3 days. Return a 'Pass' in a new column if so. 'Fail' if not. 

 

I'm a Power BI newbie, any help would be appreciated!

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

First go to query editor >add an index column,

Then create 4 columns as below:

 

Column = IF(SEARCH("Fail",'Table'[Pass/Fail],,0)=0,0,1)
Column 2 = 
var pre1=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Test Run Date]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index]=EARLIER('Table'[Index])-1))
var pre2=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Test Run Date]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index]=EARLIER('Table'[Index])-2))
Return
IF(pre1=BLANK()||pre2=BLANK(),BLANK(),IF(pre1=DATEADD('Table'[Test Run Date],1,DAY)&&pre2=DATEADD('Table'[Test Run Date],2,DAY),1,BLANK()))
Column 3 = 
var pre1=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Pass/Fail]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index]=EARLIER('Table'[Index])-1))
var pre2=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Pass/Fail]),FILTER('Table','Table'[Index]=EARLIER('Table'[Index])-2))
Return
IF(pre1=BLANK()||pre2=BLANK(),BLANK(),IF(pre1='Table'[Pass/Fail]&&pre2='Table'[Pass/Fail],1,BLANK()))
Column 4 = IF('Table'[Column 2]=1&&'Table'[Column 3]=1,'Table'[Pass/Fail],BLANK())

 

Finally you will see:

Ignore Attribute columns.

 

As you can see, there can be multiple tests for the same metric on each day. I want to count if all those tests 'Pass' over 3 days.

Hi  @Anonymous ,

 

While analyzing your data,I found that there aren't 3 consecutive days in it,so would you pls check and update the data?

See image. Ignore all 'Attribute' and 'UV?' columns.  There are around 2000 rows in this table.
