    Hi Ruslan,

     

    What would you like to test? The results of the reports could be wrong or unexpected. But it has little chances to have bugs.

      Hi v-jiascu-msft,

       

      I want to test reports results (dataset queries and visuals, at least tables and matrix).

        Hi Ruslan,

         

        What do you expect from the test? To be honest, I have no idea about testing the result of visuals. For example, generally, the formula could return a value. How can we test if it's correct? If it returns the row total, it could be wrong due to we want the total of the whole column. It also could be correct because the row total is what we need.
