The problem I’m having

I’m trying to define documentation and tests on my seeds. But I am unable to view the docs or run the tests.

What I’ve already tried

As per dbt-docs I’ve created a [any_name].yml file in my seeds directory with the following content:

version: 2

seeds:
  - name: exchange_rates
    description: '{{ doc("seed_exchange_rates") }}'
    columns:
      - name: financial_quarter
        data_tests:
          - unique
          - not_null
      - name: usd_to_eur
        data_tests:
          - not_null

When I run dbt seed the seeds are loaded as expected, but when running dbt test the seed-tests are ignored. Also when viewing the docs created by dbt docs generate my descriptions on the seeds don’t appear.

What am I missing/doing wrong?

I’ve since upgraded to dbt-core version 1.9.1, this solved my issue.
