Java Faker

This library is a port of Ruby's stympy/faker gem (as well as Perl's Data::Faker library) that generates fake data. It's useful when you're developing a new project and need some pretty data for showcase.

Usage

In pom.xml, add following between <dependencies> ... </dependencies>

<dependency>
    <groupId>com.github.javafaker</groupId>
    <artifactId>javafaker</artifactId>
    <version>0.12</version>
</dependency>

For gradle users, add the following to your build.gradle file.

repositories {
    mavenCentral()
}

dependencies {
    testCompile group: 'com.github.javafaker', name: 'javafaker', version: '0.12'
}

In your Java code

Faker faker = new Faker();

String name = faker.name().fullName(); // Miss Samanta Schmidt
String firstName = faker.name().firstName(); // Emory
String lastName = faker.name().lastName(); // Barton

String streetAddress = faker.address().streetAddress(); // 60018 Sawayn Brooks Suite 449
