# 📊 Standardized Test Datasets for Consistent Backtesting
|
||||
|
||||
## 🎯 Objective
|
||||
Establish standardized test datasets and scenarios to ensure consistent, repeatable backtesting results across all development iterations and feature implementations.
|
||||
|
||||
## 📋 Test Dataset Categories
|
||||
|
||||

## 🎯 Implementation for Your Current Setup
|
||||
|
||||
### Immediate Next Steps:
|
||||
1. **Generate test configurations** using the scripts above
|
||||
2. **Use your current Strategy Tester setup** to run the BASELINE_3M_EURUSD test
|
||||
3. **Document the results** using the standardized template
|
||||
4. **Establish this as your benchmark** for all future development
|
||||
|
||||
### Integration with Development Workflow:
|
||||
- **Before each feature**: Run baseline test to establish pre-change performance
|
||||
- **After each feature**: Run same test to validate no regression
|
||||
- **Weekly**: Run multi-dataset test suite for comprehensive validation
|
||||
- **Before releases**: Run full test suite across all datasets
|
||||
|
||||
---
|
||||
|
||||
**Next Action**: Generate the test configurations and run your first standardized baseline test using the Strategy Tester you currently have open.
