Test data for development

[mounte]

When developing using offline database there are some missing data that currently affect the behaviour of the application (for instance missing icons in the database ==> javascript error etc.)

I suggest that some database population code should be added (as a rake task or via the db/seeds.rb) (to some extent one could use faker and populator, see: http://railscasts.com/episodes/126-populating-a-database) so we know that when running db:create db:migrate db:seed (or db:create db:migrate bookio:populatedev) we all have the same environment.

Since I just started reviewing and getting to know the code I dont think I am the right person to do so in the most efficient way but on the otherside it might be a good "first" task for me.

What do you say? Or am I totally on the wrong side of this, maybe you already have some seeding-script hanging around that I couldnt find :)

We all use the same database, even when running offline? (Help me out here @meg768)

Anyway, it should be possible to create a database with fake content, so if @mounte wants to start this, its a good idea. Further on we want to add any number of (fake) reservations for load testing and simulating volume usage.

I will look into seeding database after the weekend.
Any special wishes? Otherwise I will just seed pseudo-random data.

I will add your e-mail (daniel@bookio.com) as a user to my test database, if you then login (www.bookio.com/booker) you can see the data i use. Maybe the scripts should build this database from scratch?
