Content generation service for software testing

摘要

A method includes receiving a request to generate data which describes the data. A database of seed content and an algorithms database are searched. If both seed content and an algorithm are found, the algorithm is applied to the seed content, thereby generating data. Some embodiments may include advertising a content generation service. Users may register for the service.
