Alternative to data obfuscation to TEST your D365FO integrations

Image
 When doing integrations one rely completely on the data that is generated by the LOB applications to test integrations. Moreover, using this data for testing purposes can lead to issues related with privacy and security. For this reasons there are sample data that is available but the scope is very narrow and it is only applicable for process testing.  It is desirable to have ways to produce this data in an ad-hoc manner as when it comes to integrations the scenarios can be quite diverse. In this article I'll explain a set of scripts that can produce huge amount of valid randomized data considering the master data available in D365FO.  Consider the following scenario:  A LOB that generates huge amount of sales orders (100.000+ lines per day) and send them to D365FO for creation, and further invoicing.  5.000+ customers 30.000+ items You cannot re-use production data.  Although obfuscation of the data is a possible solution does not guarantee that all the relevant scenarios will b

Simple python script to test your data entities using odata

For a research I'm doing I had to create this simple script to test an odata endpoint. There many scripts out there but the good about this one is that is written in python. Just replace the values and execute! https://github.com/ccampora/D365FOMiddleware/D365FOAuth.py
