The Benerator tool focuses on a single problem: generating testdata. Although a simple problem to start, getting good testdata is tough:
- testing extremes
- using anonimized production-data
- applying complex validations on inputdata (e.g. realistic names, gender, birth date, addresses,...)
Benerator has following advantages:
- multiple input/output formats supported: xml, csv, database
- highly customizable
- free (GPL)
I've never used such testdata generation tools, but this is definitely tool I might look at in future testing work...
