What you'll learn

Reliable pipelines need more than valid Python and a successful first run. In this course, Design and Test Pipelines with Apache Airflow 3, you’ll gain the ability to design maintainable task-based workflows and test their behavior. First, you’ll explore how to translate requirements into TaskFlow tasks, operators, dependencies, and TaskGroups. Next, you’ll discover how XComs, Params, Variables, branching, and trigger rules control data and execution flow. Finally, you’ll learn how to validate Dag loading, use dag.test(), write unit tests, and judge whether important paths are covered. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of Airflow workflow design and testing needed to build pipelines that are easier to change, diagnose, and trust.
