TestData CLI

A CLI tool that generates realistic test data from JSON Schema, TypeScript types, or sample data files using Faker-style generation.

Features

  • Generate realistic test data from JSON Schema
  • Support for Faker-style data generation (names, emails, addresses, dates)
  • Bulk data generation with configurable count
  • Multiple output formats: JSON, CSV, and SQL
  • Generate from TypeScript types
  • Generate from sample data files
  • Custom pattern support with regex-based generation
  • Seed support for reproducible data generation

Installation

pip install -e .

Quick Start

Generate data from a JSON Schema file:

testdatagen generate --schema schema.json --count 10

Generate with specific output format:

testdatagen generate --schema schema.json --format csv --count 5

Use a seed for reproducible results:

testdatagen generate --schema schema.json --seed 12345

Commands

generate

Generate test data from a JSON Schema file.

testdatagen generate --schema <file> [options]

Options:

  • --schema, -s: Path to JSON Schema file (required)
  • --count, -n: Number of records to generate (default: 10)
  • --format, -f: Output format - json, csv, or sql (default: json)
  • --seed: Random seed for reproducibility
  • --table: Table name for SQL output (default: generated_table)

from-ts

Generate test data from a TypeScript type definition.

testdatagen from-ts --input <file.ts> [options]

from-sample

Generate test data from a sample data file.

testdatagen from-sample --input <file.json> [options]

Configuration

Default options can be configured in ~/.testdatagen.yaml:

default-seed: 42
default-count: 10

Or in pyproject.toml:

[tool.testdatagen]
default-seed = 42
default-count = 10
