Hi all,

I have looked at some autofills for Firefox. But they are not designed with the developers' needs in mind. General internet surfers will need a tool to fill in many different forms with constant values for each form. Developers need exactly the opposite, when you want to test a part of your app you'll need to fill a single (or a couple of) forms many times with different (but valid and sensible) data.

So, does such a thing exist? An autofill to fill form inputs based on perhaps a class name (email, password, address, url, ...)?

I strongly feel if it doesn't exist someone should roll up their sleeves and make one! I for one will put in my share if some others want to team up. But right now, I am desperately in need of one if it exists

One way is to use Greasemonkey.

It sounds good! in one place it says: `Different profiles (to have real and fake ones)` But at present state it aims the general public, though it may be easy to modify this. I remember I once saw a tool to fill tables in a database with fake but meaningful data (address col with addresses, etc). If the GM script can be married to that, the result will be what I'm looking for. Thank you for the pointer.
