AI analytics must test business logic, not just SQL syntax

By PulseAugur Editorial · [1 sources] ·

A common issue in AI-powered analytics is that Text-to-SQL agents can generate syntactically correct SQL queries that do not accurately reflect business logic. This problem arises because standard tests verify query execution, not business correctness. To address this, developers can create small, golden datasets with known edge cases and expected outcomes. These datasets, combined with a defined business metric contract, allow for robust testing that ensures the AI's generated queries align with specific business definitions and avoid common pitfalls like incorrect joins or grain mismatches.
