Abstract
Many IT organizations today spend more than 40% of the project’s budget on software testing (Capgemini, 2015; Tata, 2015). One way of making the testing process easier is to automatically generate synthetic data that would be similar to the data inputted in the real environment. The benefits offered by an automated process are invaluable since real datasets can be hard to obtain due to data sensitivity and confidentiality issues. Automated Dataset Generator (ADaGe) enables the end-user to define and tweak a dataset definition through an interface in a way that satisfies the system’s requirements. Our tool enables the automatic generation of small to large amount of synthesized data that can be outputted to a file or streamed to a real-time processing system.
