Test Environment PySpark Support

Implementation Complete

The test environment has been fully updated to support PySpark testing alongside the existing Pandas tests.

Changes Made

1. Docker Configuration

Dockerfile.test:

• Added Java 17 JDK (required for PySpark)
• Set JAVA_HOME environment variable
• Added PySpark installation (pyspark==3.5.0)
• Updated to include requirements-spark.txt

docker-compose.test.yml:

• Added requirements-spark.txt volume mount
• Added JAVA_HOME and SPARK_LOCAL_IP environment variables

2. Dependencies

requirements-dev.txt:

• Added pyspark==3.5.0 for local testing

3. Test Infrastructure

conftest.py:

• Added spark_session fixture (session-scoped SparkSession)
• Added spark_df_from_dict helper fixture
• Configured Spark for local testing (local[2], 2GB memory)

test_etl_spark.py:

• Complete PySpark test suite (mirrors test_etl.py)
• 15+ test cases covering all functionality
• Performance test for vectorized operations
• All tests use Spark DataFrames instead of Pandas

4. CI/CD Pipeline

GitHub Actions (.github/workflows/ci.yml):

• Split into two jobs:
  • python-validation: Pandas tests
  • pyspark-validation: PySpark tests
• Added Java 17 setup for PySpark job
• Separate linting and testing for each implementation

5. Documentation

tests/README_TESTING.md:

• Complete testing guide
• Instructions for running Pandas and PySpark tests
• Troubleshooting guide
• Best practices

Test Coverage

Pandas Tests (test_etl.py)

• 15+ test cases
• All validation scenarios
• Loop prevention
• Circuit breaker

PySpark Tests (test_etl_spark.py)

• 15+ test cases (mirrors Pandas)
• All validation scenarios
• Loop prevention
• Circuit breaker
• Vectorized operations performance
• Large dataset handling

Running Tests

Local (Pandas)

pytest tests/test_etl.py -v

Local (PySpark)

export JAVA_HOME=/usr/lib/jvm/java-17-openjdk-amd64
pytest tests/test_etl_spark.py -v

Docker (Both)

docker-compose -f docker-compose.test.yml up --build

CI/CD

• Automatically runs both test suites on every push/PR
• Both must pass for CI to succeed

Verification

To verify the test environment works:

1. Build Docker image:

   docker build -f Dockerfile.test -t etl-tests .

2. Run PySpark tests:

   docker run --rm etl-tests pytest tests/test_etl_spark.py -v

3. Run all tests:

   docker run --rm etl-tests pytest tests/ -v

Troubleshooting

Java Not Found

• Ensure Java 17+ is installed
• Set JAVA_HOME environment variable
• Docker image includes Java automatically

PySpark Import Errors

• Check pyspark is installed: pip list | grep pyspark
• Rebuild Docker image if needed

Memory Issues

• Reduce Spark memory in conftest.py if needed
• Default: 2GB driver, 2GB executor

Next Steps

1. ✅ Test environment supports PySpark (COMPLETE)
2. 🔄 Run tests locally to verify
3. 🔄 Push to GitHub to verify CI/CD
4. 🔄 Add integration tests for Spark modules

Status: ✅ TEST ENVIRONMENT READY FOR PYSPARK

All test infrastructure has been updated and is ready to use.
