synth
A declarative tool for generating realistic, scalable test data from code or existing databases.
What is synth?
Synth is a declarative data generator that provides a robust framework for creating realistic, constraint-based test data. It solves common developer problems like populating new schemas, avoiding production data for testing, and simulating data at scale. The tool is database-agnostic and can handle millions of rows.
Developers and QA engineers who need to generate realistic, synthetic test data for applications, especially those working with SQL or NoSQL databases and requiring data privacy and scalability.
Developers choose Synth for its declarative 'data as code' approach, which allows version control and automation of data models, and its ability to automatically infer and import schemas from existing databases like Postgres, MySQL, and MongoDB.
