> 
> To answer your question directly: GX can support running the same test across multiple Assets. The best way to do that depends on what you want to test.

> The way we run our GX tests is by orchestrating them via Glue jobs \>\> Airflow DAGs.  
> Basically what I wanted to do was compare the value of a certain cell within today’s set of data to its equivalent within yesterday’s data and check for deviations. The datasets I want to compare exist as different subfolders in s3 in the exact same format.
