Addendum - added December 3, 2024​

With the introduction of unit tests in dbt version 1.8, the tests: key was renamed to data_tests:. For existing process apps, this results in a deprecation warning that is displayed when running an ingestion or opening Data transformations.

[WARNING]: Deprecated functionality The `tests` config has been renamed to `data_tests`. Please see https://docs.getdbt.com/docs/build/data-tests#new-data_tests-syntax for more information.

For default process apps, you can rename the occurrences of the tests: config to data_tests: in the dbt_project.yml and the sources.yml files to fix this. For customized process apps, this can be present in other .yml files as well.

Check out the official dbt documentation on the New data_tests: syntax for more information.
