This pull request adds a feature to check the installed dbt version and adapt test definitions accordingly. Specifically, it prepares for the announced deprecation where dbt will use data_tests: instead of tests: for test definitions in configuration files.
Changes
Added a dbt_version_util.py module with a function is_version_gte_1_8 to check the dbt version.
Modified dbt_test_module.py to use the new version check function and adapt test definitions based on the installed dbt version.
Motivation
See Issue #79 for details.
Testing
Tested locally with dbt versions to ensure correct behavior:
When running with dbt 1.7.x, droughty_schema.yml uses "tests:"
When running with dbt 1.8.1, droughty_schema.yml uses "data_tests:"
