The daily Google Searches, Facebook messages, likes, Twitter tweets that are generated is phenomenal. Businesses are utilizing this information in numerous ways, managing and analyzing it to get a competitive edge.

There are different types of DataPipelines like Batch Processing, Stream Processing. So different strategies are required to perform testing on these data pipelines. We are considering a near real time (Stream processing)

Use case:

Let us consider a new Sporting Company would like to target selling of sport equipment based on the pulse of the sport in each country.
