Ghost Bakery, in a nutshell
Ghost Bakery is a hosted fake-data service for software testing. Describe the data you need, generate it on demand, and download it in a format your application or test suite can use.
Recipes
A recipe describes the shape of each generated record: field names, types, language, quantity, and output format.
Use recipes for realistic people, identifiers, dates, text, numbers, nested JSON, and other synthetic test payloads. Save a recipe and run it again whenever you need fresh data.
Catalogs
Catalogs are curated reference datasets such as countries, languages, currencies, names, cities, and related codes.
Use catalog data inside a recipe, or filter and export a dataset directly when your tests need a known list rather than random values.
How to use it
- Create a free account. It starts with 500 credits and is refilled every 30 days while the free-tier autorefill is active.
- Choose Recipes or Catalogs. Build a recipe for generated records, or browse and export curated reference data.
- Review the estimate, run, and download. Generation happens as a job; download the result when it is ready.
Common outputs include CSV, JSON, TSV, XLSX, PDF, XML, YAML, and SQL. The same generation engine is available through the web application and the HTTP API.
