One of my tests failed, how can I debug it?

To debug a failing test, find the SQL that dbt ran by:

  • dbt:

    • Within the test output, click on the failed test, and then select "Details".

  • dbt Core:

    • Open the file path returned as part of the error message.
    • Navigate to the target/compiled/schema_tests directory for all compiled test queries.

Copy the SQL into a query editor (in dbt, you can paste it into a new Statement), and run the query to find the records that failed.
