Test Data Generation

Test Data Generation is a software engineering process that systematically produces input data and corresponding expected outputs to validate the correctness, reliability, and performance of a software system under test, distinguishing it from general test activities by its focused aim on creating meaningful, representative, and often automated data instances tailored to specific test cases and coverage criteria.
