pql-test has been added to PyPI, giving developers a packaged way to work with a command-line tool focused on DAX testing in Power BI projects. The tool is aimed at discovering and running test suites inside Power BI Project (PBIP) semantic models.
According to the project description, pql-test is bundled with the Power Query Lint VS Code extension. Its role is to help users execute DAX unit tests stored within a PBIP semantic model, using XMLA as the connection layer for that workflow.
The release is relevant for Power BI teams that want a more structured approach to validating semantic model logic. By exposing this capability as a CLI and publishing it on PyPI, the project becomes easier to install and integrate into Python-based development environments.
While the available listing is brief, the core use case is clear: pql-test is designed to mirror a testing workflow around DAX inside Power BI semantic models. Its appearance on PyPI expands access to the tool for users already working with PBIP, XMLA, and the Power Query Lint ecosystem.
