Most of the time during testing we put any data in application and test the application behavior and some how thats ok as far as testing team is concern. most of the time we need the valid test data in our test cases similar to the production test data or UAT test data or infact we need the test data to validate from a vast array of data .
lets assume we need the test data for address or telephone number in US or UK - in this case we put the test data of our nation and assume that it will workk for US or UK without knowing the pattens of US or UK address or better say the telephone number where the format vary from nation to nation.As a test engineer always in the shoes of end user must replicate the near real test data.
Same problem was with me , as I used to put any junk data and proceeds for testing ,but that was not acceptable as long as you becomes the senior in corporate ladder.
I resolve the problem of Test data that is some how the real test data.
There is a site -http://www.generatedata.com/#generator
that generated the test data for testing purposes . And it has the functionality of export in different format as Excel, XML ,HTML etc.
