Airflow best practices: debugging and testing

Airflow is a powerful platform for orchestrating complex workflows, but with so much flexibility, managing and maintaining reliable dags can seem challenging. But it doesn’t have to be. With a few Airflow features, you can make your DAGs much more reliable than they are today.

In this webinar, you’ll learn how to easily and effectively debug your DAGs when an error inevitably occurs, and implement testing so issues don’t make it to production. We’ll cover topics like helpful Airflow features for debugging your DAGs, how to avoid common issues, unit testing, and automating tests as part of a CICD workflow. We’ll also discuss features that Astro, Astronomer’s managed Airflow service, provides that make testing and debugging easier.
