It was about time somebody creates something like this. I do have a complain, classes are named random. If you used a tool that generates human like names, it would still be random but looked much better.

I will see to create a similar rails tool. I intend to test just stress of people who will look at the code and try to understand what it does.

I was thinking exactly the same thing but to stress test "fancy IDEs".

What if I took emacs and cider and helm-cider and fed it 1e6 line long namespace browser?

(edited to note, I'm not sure why I'd want to try that, but I immediately wondered what would happen...)

for some reason when I first saw the OP I wondered if it was http://projects.haykranen.nl/java/
Heh, this might actually be useful for v2.0 :)
D:
We've actually thought of using a random pool of Star Wars related names, will have to wait for the next version. Pull requests are welcome though :P
If you have the time (probably not :) ), there was a really cool project that took names from GitHub and generated random names using Markov Chains... maybe use the same for the class names :) .
Cool, sounds similar to the site on the other comment here: http://projects.haykranen.nl/java/

I think rails does that out of the box.
