FAQ
Example:
In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
- Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
- To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
- Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
- If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
- Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Informations about the package test-data-generator

Introduction
This offers a very simple class offering methods for basic data generation, ideal for unit tests or data filling. This is not meant to be a replacement for fzaninotto/Faker or fakerphp/faker, but bear in mind that it is Faker is retired and both are pretty large includes for a production environment.
Some of the included functions are very simple, but the small amounts of code, such as filtering or formatting add up to a lot of duplication. In fact, this is the reason the package came about. It simply centralises this code, allowing a single point to catch all this nuance.
For example; it is simple to create a random date string, however there are several traps for random generation. MySQL date strings have bounds (after 1000-01-01), MySQL dates are padded with zeros (February is 02, not 2) and so on and so forth. By using this class these complexities are centralised and resolved in a well tested class structure.
Core functions are exposed, but there are also numerous quick aliases ready for use. For example,
The core randomMySqlDateTimeTimestamp offers a safe bounded and correctly instantiated timestamp, which allows a safe
call for randomMySqlDate and randomMySqlDateTime.
To be clear; the above example methods are simple, predefined lookups. They are simply just conveniently set-up
methods. However, the methods are designed to allow custom output criteria. A formatted date output can easily be
generated as well, such as randomMySqlDate('l jS \of F Y h:i:s A'). All relevant/appropriate methods do this also.
Features
- simple response
- efficient installation
- quickly generate reliable fake data such as dates, passwords, numbers of different specs etc.

Setup
These are a simple classes, so minimal setup is required. In a composer/PSR compliant system, this should be automatically included. If your system works another way, this can be manually included.
Note that they are namespaced, so should not clash with your other classes/methods.
Testing
To run the tests:
./vendor/phpunit/phpunit/phpunit
Documentation and coverage can be generated as follows:
./vendor/phpunit/phpunit/phpunit --coverage-html docs/tests/
Static analysis/code review can be performed by using phpstan:
./vendor/bin/phpstan
Gotcha: sometimes you may need to increase memory on docker/vagrant/virtual containers:
./vendor/bin/phpstan --memory-limit=1G
