Is this not duplicated information between the definition of the validation and then its usage? As in is there any situation where the string name definition and the variable name definition will not align in a 1:1 manner?

Hi George. I'd probably do something like the following. You don't need to repeat the dagster type name as the name of the OutputDefinition

@solid(output_defs=[OutputDefinition(create_dagster_pandas_dataframe_type("RecordsDataFrame", ...))])
def dataframe_validation_test(...):
    ...

Cheers sandy, helpful advice
