1 Informatica ETL Naming Conventions


These standards should be followed on all new development and rework of existing
development objects. Any existing objects (i.e. Production) should only be modified if the
opportunity presents itself (i.e. changes to mappings, workflows).

1.1 Repository Object


Repository Objects

Naming Convention

Mapping Name

m_<meaningful name> (Examples: m_RefreshSIQREPL,


m_PERSON)

Session Name

s_<mapping name> (Example: s_m_PERSON)

Folder Name

Folder names for new users will be their department followed


by their username. Existing users folder names are typically
their group followed by their user name. Folder Names may
also be based on project, subject area, and promotion group.

Log Files

<session_name>.log OR <workflow_name>.log

Bad Files

<session_name>.bad

Source-name & Target-name

Do not make any distinction here - Informatica color-codes the


sources and targets, so it's easy to tell. We do try to prefix
these with a folder name, so that when shortcuts or global
objects are created we can tell where they originally reside.

Workflow Names

w_<mapping name>

2 Document Purpose
<This section shall briefly explain the purpose of the document>.
This document shall list all test cases that were conducted during unit testing by the
developer [or] quality assurance testing by the QA team. The goal is to document all the
test case scenarios for ETL source to stage, stage to target, history and any other data load
activities. The test cases may be grouped into in to the same document or in an excel
spread sheet and the corresponding link can be provided in the section of this document
whichever is easy to maintain and track. Please extend the sections as needed by copying
the single test case templates or add sections by adding further sheets. The description of
how to fill in test case templates can be found within comments in the corresponding cells.
This document needs to be delivered during Unit Testing, QA testing, Pre-Prod Testing/ UAT
testing.

3 Project Overview
<Provide the description of the project purpose and objective
Provide Project Drivers which describe the business needs and technical needs that motivate
the project.
Example:

Client Analytics Private Banking currently performs that analysis & reporting of the
data which is available in different database on Sybase. This poses a potential timing
issue for making the data available to the Business Users since lots of manual
processing needs to be done to consolidate the data at one place

Client Analytics Private Banking needs the data to be consolidated at the monthly
level instead of daily level

State once the project is completed, what benefits or outcomes it brings to the
organization or the departments>

4 In Scope Testing
<This is the testing scope that needs to be listed which in turn reflects the requirements of
the project>.

5 Out of Scope Testing


<Indicate and list the testing exclusions within the project scope. Indicate those that are
completely out of this project and those that are not part of Brillio but delivered by a
different party within Customer organization or outside>.
