Not sure if this has been discussed already, but I could not find
anything in the list archives, nor by quickly googling.
So, I'm thinking of making a framework for automated data
generation, based on a model and some runtime settings. This would,
obviously, be used for testing. Specifically: filling up a database
with arbitrary numbers of nonsense rows, that are however legal, and
proceeding from there.
Has anyone made this already? Skimmed through the wonder API, but
did not see anything that struck a chord...
If nobody ever made it, then why not? It seems a very nice thing to
have, and off the top of my head I can not think of any
insurmountable obstacle to making it...
I have wanted one, but never gotten around to it. We always managed
to find some real data that we could use. Wonder has
ERXLoremIpsumGenerator to fill text fields (I think).
