Software development process for power query and dax

Hi Guys,

I am coming from software engineering background, and thinking how can i make unit tests for DAX and power query ?

It is possible with power bi? 
What tools I can use? 

Scenarios:
1) Imagine that somebody is creating new power query to connect to postgres database tables. 
How to make a unit test to check connections?
2) Another power bi report developer wants to get all DAXes connected to specific data source table and change some of them.
How the process should be look like ?
3) I want to add new DAX but besure that I can test it before publishing into report. How to do this? 

Best,
Jacek

look into Deployment Pipelines, Version Control options (which are limited) and API based CI/CD.

Thanks for the clue!
