Testing

After ETL+ has loaded your Oracle files, this is to check if the data extraction process finished successfully and row count per extracted table matches with your Oracle tables.

Steps

Login to ETL+ (help here).
On the ETL main page, click the top-right Log icon. Log page help here.
Scroll down on the log page and double-check that no table load failed, and the row count matches with the Oracle tables. Following is an example highlighting two tables and their loaded row count.
