Interface DescriptiveResult

All Superinterfaces:

Result

@UML(identifier="DQ_DescriptiveResult",
     specification=ISO_19157)
public interface DescriptiveResult
extends Result

Data quality descriptive result. In some cases, it is not possible to produce a quantitative result for a data quality element. A subjective evaluation of an element can then be expressed with a textual statement as a data quality descriptive result. This descriptive result can also be used to provide a short synthetic description of the result of the data quality evaluation, to accompany the complete quantitative result.
