Need dummy data for testing? Well look no further. FakeDataMaker for Java can generate all kinds of garbage data like:

• Phone Numbers
• First and Last Names
• Random Dates
• Email Address
• Mailing Addresses
• Username generation for major online providers
• URLs and more!!!

Mini-Roadmap

Soonish

• Company Names
• Documentation with Examples (there are some BDD tests though you can look at now)

A Little Later

• Housecleaning (packaging and stuff)
• Canadian-centric random data generation
• British-centric random data generation
• Australian-centric random data generation

Someday / Maybe / Maybe Not

(The order listed here may or may not be the actual order of when I start working on them.)

• German-centric random data generation
• French-centric random data generation
• Mainland Chinese-centric random data generation
• Japanese-centric random data generation
• Taiwanese-centric random data generation
• Spain-centric random data generation
• Get this working stand alone, dumping data directly into the data store of choice.
