Looking for tool to generate random CSV data

Question

Hello All, I've been Googling fpr a product, but have yet to find something that I like for generating random/semi-random Data.

Ideally, I'd be able to use some of my own input lists, combined with email generation, phone number, etc... to be able to generate test CSV files with multiple records.

Also, open source is best.

What tools do you guys use for this?

Answer 1

http://www.generatedata.com/

You can use it online, or download the GNU-licensed code and run it yourself. Supports generating CSV, HTML, XML, Excel and SQL data, and you can specify the data types such as Name, Date, Number Range, Zip Code, Phone Number, etc.

Answer 2

Hi, i used this once in a project http://www.generatedata.com/

It has a generator http://www.generatedata.com/#generator that you export data in CSV as well.

Answer 3

Try this one :) http://triona.info/

Answer 4

I've been using http://www.fakenamegenerator.com/order.php for awhile, though it looks like http://www.generatedata.com/ is pretty decent. With the fake name generator you can get all the standard fields, like phone number, email, credit card, and ssn, in batches of up to 40000 entries.

Answer 5

I've been mucking with dgMaster http://dgmaster.sourceforge.net/articles/downloads.html. It's a java cross-platform, and is a good start...but I'm not loving it. I'm still looking.
