My Testing Thoughts

A few weeks back, I wrote about how we can come up with the automation test data that look more or less like real application data. There we have discussed the test data generation library Java Faker: https://testersdigest.blogspot.com/2019/10/automation-test-data.html (https://github.com/DiUS/java-faker).  We have a similar Java library "jFairy" which can generate test data for our automation scripts: https://github.com/Devskiller/jfairy Usage of jFairy is quite simple and similar to java-faker. #automationTestData   #JFairy   #testautomation   #automationTesting  

In automation space, who doesn't need random test data for things like let's say a name, address, CC, date, phone, etc.? We are always inclined to use a Java class that provides some random numbers or strings like this jk4h5j6hjkh for a name, address, city, etc. But isn't it dreadful? Do you guys know that there is a Faker library that is excellent at generating realistic test data? And that too based on your locale: https://github.com/DiUS/java-faker Do check this out too for the examples: https://java-faker.herokuapp.com/ I find it very shway. Do comment if you are already using it or like it. #seleniumautomation   #easierway   #betterway   #apiautomation   #testData   #automationtesting
