TDC: Test Data Catalog Generation
Extension Points
Define your own test data generators by inheriting from StandardGenerator
. Best practice is to define an ApplicationStandardGenerator
and have all other generators inherit from it.
Define your own definition resolvers by inheriting from DefinitionResolver
. Best practice is to define an ApplicationDefinitionResolver
and all other definition resolvers inherit from it.
During generation the test data catalog will be represented by CatalogEntries
that are populated by reading from YAML
files with a DataDefinitionReader
or provided directly by an InMemoryDataDefinition
.
Data Definition DSL
DefinitionResolvable
and DefinitionSourcable
provide a DSL that you may use in your generators to work more easily with a DataDefinition
.
By registering a class instance that inherits from ExtendedAttributes::InterpreterBase
with the ExtendedAttributes::InterpreterRegistry
you may extend the DSL that is used to interpret attribute values.
