@Abhijit Mugali , thank you for pointing to the data mask tiles feature , it's great option if you want to enable it for testers. For us the requirement is to automate the existing data masking jobs with multiple tables in different versions / models of a project.
Challenge is some of the jobs depend on another jobs to complete as some of the tables refer to each other for fetching data . Those tables are big with huge volume of data and the masking time varies depending on multiple factors like response from database, temp space, DB utilization , TDM server utilization etc.
We want to automate the job in a way that a new job starts once the previous one completes and I see javelin as one of the option to do so however I see few challenges in that :
- Javelin is not doing actual data masking in DB when the .BAT file is created via TDM Portal while the javelin flow completes without any error or issue. We have raised ticket to address this issue.
- We do not see any traces or can not track the jobs via TDM portal (if the jobs are executed via Javelin), we need this as that gives us confidence that the tables were indeed executed or not . We at least need the run summary of the tables as we get from portal. Because as i said in above point my javelin flow is getting successfully completed however in DB no masking is happening.
- From above issue, we came to the Orchestration -> workflow option however from there also we do not see any option to run the javelin workflow created for masking.
So we are looking for an option to have workflow where jobs runs one after the other once the previous one is completed as there may be deviation in job execution time , so even scheduling the jobs does not really help in this case.
