My Markdown and CSV Data Table Editor tool can now generate random test data from a regex specification.

eviltester.github.io/grid-table-edi…

#TestData #RandomData

The test data spec is a set of lines in a text area, and a number for How Many? rows to generate:

name
regex

The data is rendered in a Data Grid using @ag_grid and this allows:

- filtering
- sorting
- moving rows and columns
- deleting data
- in cell editing
- etc.

The data in the grid can be exported to:

- Markdown table format
- CSV
- JSON
- Gherkin data table format
- HTML table

You can also import, export from files containing:

- Markdown table format
- CSV
- JSON
- Gherkin

Regex data generation was easy to add using the randexp.js project:

fent.github.io/randexp.js/

The Markdown and CSV Data Table editor is an MVP WIP so may not have as much data validation as you expect.

Bonus tip: use the dev tools console to see any data validation error messages.

Source code is here:

And, as a bonus... my first test data spec:

FirstName
[A-Z][a-z]{1,10}
LastName
[A-Z][a-z]{1,20}
Email
[A-Z0-9._%+-]{4,15}@[A-Z0-9.-]{3,16}\.(com|gov|co\.uk|[a-z]{2,4})
Age
[1-6][0-9]
