JSON Data Generator

Generator for random JSON strings to test your REST-Services!

The 'what'

This lib was created to help us run our load tests with lots of different, random data. It creates JSON-Strings based on a JSON-Schema with random attribute values.

The 'how-to'

Include the lib in your project with

    <dependency>
        <groupId>com.github.rabend</groupId>
        <artifactId>json-data-generator</artifactId>
        <version>0.14</version>
    </dependency>

Just use the class TestDataGenerator in your test case, instantiate it with an URL to the schema you want to generate data for and call generateJsonString() as often as you need. It will return a JSON-String representation of the object specified by the schema, with random attribute values. Or you can just use one of the type related generators, if that's what you need.

Notes

If you have a JSON-Schema that contains nodes which cannot be generated with this lib, feel free to implement a solution and open a PR :)
