General testing, unit-testing, and load-testing are complicated without random data with various possibilities to test against.

Client presentations are made more difficult without readable information that shows how a final website or software application may display data.

The Coldfusion Random Data Generator (Gazoo 0.9.5) tries to simplify both by providing highly random, highly readable data.

Random Data Generation includes the following:

-Images (includes a batch image converter) --Regular Sized Images --Thumbnail images -Image sets (regular/thumbnail together) -HTML -Company Names -Email Addresses -Passwords -First Names -Last Names -Phone Numbers -Dollar Amounts -Address 1s -Address 2s -Cities -State Names -State Abbreviations -Ages -Social Security Numbers -Booleans -Integers -Bits -Website URLs (including IPs) -Text -Dangerous characters that should be removed -Strings -Zip Codes (with the optional zip+4 format) -Zip Codes By State -Dates within a range (useful for birthdays) -Generic Dates -Start Dates with subsequent End Dates -Times -UUIDs

SIMPLICITY: Download and go! Gazoo generates all sample data from the home page. For CF8 users, all you have to do is unzip the "Gazoo" sample directory to your web-root and open the index file. No database is necessary, and configuration is kept to a minimum.
