Well, I hate to pitch my own project, but consider my NonMockObjects:

Personally, I do think there would be some benefit in this type of
behavior. Trying to create a bunch of test data can be a pain. For
instance, you can do it programmatically with Python but then you end
up with the cycle of :
- Populate data from scripts
- Dump to a serialized form
- Load into

Hey Russ,

Hi all,
On the users list, Gijs <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> has raised the idea
of dynamic fixtures. For example, Rails allows the use of embedded
Ruby in a fixture file, so that:
<% for i in 1..1000 %>
fix_<%= i %>:
id: <%= i %>
name: guy_<%= 1 %>
<% end %&g
