vitorsantos-commits opened a new issue, #8035:
URL: https://github.com/apache/hop/issues/8035
### What would you like to happen?
Description:
Currently, generating a full golden dataset for unit tests requires manual
workarounds (like mapping a Text File Output to the exact dataset CSV path).
Generating datasets automatically via automated runners is also difficult. I
propose a unified "2-in-1" solution to solve both GUI and pipeline execution
friction.
The Unified Proposal:
The Engine ("Write to Dataset" Transform): Introduce a new transform
dedicated to writing rows directly into a Unit Test Dataset. This allows
developers to programmatically generate test data during headless executions
(hop-run) without hardcoding file paths.
The GUI Shortcut (UI Integration): Enhance the "Create dataset" dialog in
the UI. When a user creates a dataset from a transform's output, add a choice
between "Current rows" (UI cached limit) and "All rows". Choosing "All rows"
would simply trigger a background execution utilizing the new "Write to
Dataset" transform logic to stream the full output seamlessly.
