>things I need to test I think this is the biggest problem. I don't need a lot of random data in my database. I need a lot of specific scenarios set up. And a way to get those scenarios back after I test something. I've definitely been in a lot of situations where test data is a problem. A particularly egregious one that comes to mind is the poor developer that had to develop the fraud functionality. Marking an account as fraud nuked it in the back end. Lots of angry testers/developers when their favorite test account got marked as fraud. |

Yes we've seen this quite a lot in the wild. The truth is this is not very well defined - how do you get your data to tell a story depends on the story you are trying to tell.
We are trying to come up with a more rigorous framework for abstract representations of 'scenarios' . It's on our roadmap so keep an eye out for this :)
