Test Data Generator

This tool can be used to generate random test data in a wide range of formats; there are some predefined formats for common scenarios, or an ad-hoc template for complete control of the process.

Text

• "Lorem Ipsum" text (see template)

Names

• Text list of names (see template)
• XML formatted names (see template)
• SQL Insert statements for names (see template)

Addresses

• CSV Addresses (see template)
• XML Addresses (see template)

If you want to create your own test data format you can use any of the following tokens (some with parameters) to position the randomly generated test data within a literal string (for example, an XML structure or just the commas in CSV). Use the header and footer to put literal text before or after the block of test data.

• Names ({title}, {firstname}, {lastname})
• Addresses ({streetname} {thoroughfare}, {city}, {county}, {postcode})
• {number}
• {guid}
• Text ({greeking})
• {listitem}
• {pattern}
