Press Release Body = Test Data at the Press of a Button

Organisations rely heavily on good quality test data when developing new
applications and re-developing existing business applications. The ability to create
test data quickly and efficiently for a range of test cases saves organizations both
time and money. Data Maker from Grid-Tools is an easy to use tool that makes it
possible to edit and copy data between schemas as well as build related sets of
table data which can then be published to development and test databases.

Data Maker has many strengths as a test data creation tool including the ability to
produce test data with the relationships and characteristics of production data.
"Data Maker can anonymise sensitive data," explains Huw Price, Director of
Grid-Tools. "This is ideal for protecting confidential data and for ensuring
compliance with data protection legislation." Data Maker provides enterprises with
one tool to ensure compliance with data protection laws across all their test
databases, with its support for multiple database types, including MySQL and DB2.

"A large amount of development budget is spent on testing applications," continued
Huw. "GT Datamaker also provides the tools to reuse test cases, saving significant
time and increasing developer and tester productivity." Data Maker also supports the
ability to reuse test cases, when implementing a test data repository.
