I need some test data to be displayed in my PrimeFaces Template App.
A good library to generate fake data is: Java Faker.
Add Java Faker to dependencies in Maven:
com.github.javafaker javafaker 1.0.2
For Example I want to have a Person with following fields:
private String firstName;
private String lastName;
private Date dayOfBirth;
private String phoneNumber;
private String streetName;
private String streetAddressNumber;
private String zipCode;
private String city;
private String state;
A Person can be generated with fake data from Java Faker like this:
String firstName = faker.name().firstName(); String lastName = faker.name().lastName(); Date dayOfBirth = faker.date().birthday(); String phoneNumber = faker.phoneNumber().phoneNumber(); String streetName = faker.address().streetName(); String streetAddressNumber = faker.address().streetAddressNumber(); String zipCode = faker.address().zipCode(); String city = faker.address().city(); String state = faker.address().state(); Person person = new Person(firstName, lastName, dayOfBirth, phoneNumber, streetName, streetAddressNumber, zipCode, city, state);
