Hello support, I have a question about

volume_anomalies

test. The test is configured this way:

version: 2

models:

  - name: stg_cloud_stateful__account
    config:
      elementary:
        timestamp_column: account_create_date
    tests:
       - elementary.volume_anomalies:
          tags: ["elementary"]

When I run

dbt test --select tag:elementary

It doesn't work >>>> The selection criterion 'tag:elementary' does not match any nodes If I try

dbt test --select stg_cloud_stateful__account

it doesn't find any test at all associated with the model My question is how a simple dbt test (e.g. unique) run without any issue while setting up the Elementary test as presented in the docs fails to run?

Hi @Ricardo Ortiz, sorry for the late response and thanks for sharing this issue with us, it seems unusual indeed 🤨 Can you please confirm that you have installed the elementary package in your dbt project, and then ran

dbt run -s elementary

? also, do other tests you add on this same model in this same yml file work?

@Ella Katz Yes, the elementary package was added in the dbt project, when I ran

dbt run -s elementary

I got this error:

The selection criterion 'elementary' does not match any nodes

I'm using a github codespaces inside a branch where the anomaly tests are set up.

Did you run 'dbt deps'?

Yes!!

The reason I asked is that what you're describing is what would happen if the package wasn't installed at all... If you have the elementary package installed, you should have a directory with all the elementary models under

dbt_packages

, and running

dbt run -s elementary

should find and run them, so it feels like some kind of environment issue. Can you confirm that the path

<dbt-project-root>/dbt_packages/elementary

exists and contains all the macros and models as seen on our github repo?

hi @ella katz, I get the same error after running dbt deps. confirmed that package exists under dbt_packages.

23:56:43  Installing elementary-data/elementary

Hi @Ricardo Ortiz @Norm Warren I am unable to reproduce your error, can you share your: • yaml files • exact dbt command • terminal output •

dbt.log

file if you prefer privately thats great too

Hi @Ofek Weiss, was there a resolution to this problem? I'm facing a very similar one.
