## 🎯 Core Concepts

### What is a Job?A **Job** is a task configuration that defines:

* **What** data should be validated
* **How** the validation is executed
* **Which** rules or data sources are involved

Jobs allow you to **automate, monitor, and maintain data quality** efficiently within the Data Testing platform.### Job Types

The platform supports two primary job types:

{% tabs %}
{% tab title="Compare Job" %}
**Validate differences between two data sources**

Perfect for:

* Data migrations
* Synchronization checks
* Production ↔ Staging verification
* Cross-system consistency validation

[Create Compare Job →](https://docs.qyrus.com/data-testing/jobs-and-workflows/index/compare-job)
{% endtab %}

{% tab title="Evaluate Job" %}
**Perform in-depth validations on a single data source**

Ideal for:

* Schema validation
* Data constraints checking
* Quality rule enforcement
* Custom logic validation
* Data profiling

[Create Evaluate Job →](https://docs.qyrus.com/data-testing/jobs-and-workflows/index/evaluate-job)
{% endtab %}
{% endtabs %}

## 🔗 Data Sources

The platform supports a wide variety of data source connectors, each requiring specific configuration details such as host information, credentials, queries, or access keys.

### Available Connector Categories- [🌐 API Connector](https://docs.qyrus.com/data-testing/apis-and-webhooks/api-connector)

Perfect for real-time data validation through REST APIs and webhook integrations.

**6+ SQL connectors available:**

* Amazon Redshift
* MySQL
* Microsoft SQL Server
* IBM DB2
* Oracle Database
* Snowflake

## 🔧 Functions & Transformations

Transform and preprocess column data before running validations or comparisons.

{% hint style="success" %}
Functions are especially useful for:

* ✨ Cleaning and refining raw data
* 🔄 Applying custom logic to columns
* 📐 Standardizing data formats across sources
* 🛡️ Data masking and security transformations
  {% endhint %}

## 📊 Reports & Results

Navigate to **Jobs History** to view the results of your completed jobs:

![Job History](https://362788495-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2FEnqNsUqooq2PUJJGrtgh%2Fuploads%2Fgit-blob-031ff392d22681e482d93248478a5932a1cb6c2b%2Fjob-history.png?alt=media)

{% hint style="warning" %}
Users can only view reports for jobs with the **Completed** status.
{% endhint %}
