Create Dummy Content
During the development process, a WordPress developer will often need to fill up an empty theme or test site with placeholder content. Doing so manually can be time consuming. FakerPress allows you to speed up this process.
Random Featured Images
FakerPress creates randomly generated attachments as Featured Images for your WordPress test content.
Random Meta Information
FakerPress enables you to generate custom placeholder meta information for Users, Posts, Terms, and Comments with 20 types of data.
Delete Generated Content
After testing is complete, you can delete any FakerPress-generated dummy content all at once.
Randomized HTML
When creating placeholder posts, FakerPress creates randomized HTML to allow you to catch bugs that an XML import may not.
Include Images in HTML
FakerPress also allows you to output images to your HTML tests, enabling testing for placeholder media.
Comments with Real Browser Data
FakerPress includes examples of real browser data with generated comments, allowing for more robust testing.
Generate Random Terms
FakerPress includes custom settings to determine the quantity and type of terms generated for test content. The plugin then handles randomization to generate terms within those parameters for tailored test data.
Random User Profiles
Manually generated data for test profiles might not catch edge cases. With FakerPress, randomized data fills up relevant fields with randomized information for more robust testing.
