I see a bunch of .NET open source projects out there that look to be able to get at the users information, but I just want a user to be able to "post" media that's already on Facebook on my site as well. Other websites seem to allow you to do embedding of their media (I'm really liking oEmbed) but FB seems a bit of a mystery to me. I h...

Does anyone know of a test data generator that will create the code to populate a .NET collection class which can then be copied into a unit test?

The main point of the functionality is to be able to record macros and play them back, think Website testing, mass SAP entries, anything a macro would be good for.
