- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Patrizio Bekerle, 10 måneder sidenThe only form filler I could find that actually was able to fill forms! Thank you!
- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av BrayanCaro, 2 år sidenI'm a font end dev and this addon is a life changing!, I absolutely love it!
- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av Dmitry, 3 år sidenWhile it does the job, it also eats a lot of resources in the background (could take up gigabytes of RAM and a CPU core for nothing) and does few requests for some reason. Which not only thrashes console with warnings when you work locally, but very concerning as well, because why would an extension like this would make any XHR requests at all?
I got rid of it and do not recommend it. I cannot seriously support my claim since Firefox resource manager does not show which extension takes resources, but my browser got significantly better after I disabled it. I advice fellow Firefox users to look for an alternative.Utviklerrespons
postet 3 år sidenHello,
The XHR requests are only made if you enabled the "Ultra" features inside the extension. By default, these are disabled and need a manual confirmation to enable them. These features include creating disposable email addresses, so the XHR requests are created at defined intervals to check if you received any new messages on these addresses.
Regarding resource consumption, it could be true. Extensions can behave differently on different systems. I would gladly investigate with you this issue, and the one with XHR, if you can provide me with more information that you might have by email at frustrations@haterapps.com
Thanks! - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 14213835, 4 år sidenIts cool as it fill name and email with dummies of the same type and not just any random text

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av MarNicGit, 5 år sidenI absolutely love this addon! It decreased the time spent testing things dramatically and makes life so much easier. The $3 pro license is 100% worth it and I will be recommending this addon to all my coworkers.

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 15038668, 6 år sidenThis is one of the most comprehensive, feature rich and well made autofill add-ons I have ever stumbled upon.
Easy to use with great interface and autofill hotkeys. - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 14691812, 6 år sidenThis is far, far better than all the other form fillers i've tried.
- Vurdert til 4 ut av 5av Gamesh, 6 år sidenoverall is great and love the learning feature. Would also be great if cities and countries provided real existing data, and not some made up cities that don't exist.

postet 6 år sidenHi Gamesh,
First, thank you for your review and suggestion. The countries that are generated are real, but about the cities you are right, they are not.
On my list of "Cool stuff that would be nice to have implemented at some point in the future", there is a section where you will be able to edit the database of names that are used to generate the data, but I cannot tell right now when it will be fully implemented.
However, I can help you overwrite the City generator and make it generate real city names. Just send me an email and we'll fix it. - Vurdert til 1 ut av 5av Hammarstrand, 7 år siden

- Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Firefox-bruker 14231883, 7 år sidenThe input generation is really good.
In addition the shortcut to fill the entire form is very nice.
However making this more intuitive (by adding the option to the context menu) or by stating it directly,
users would immediately know how to do this.
Given this seems to be the most important and most common use-case the amount of effort should be minimal.
Like single clicking on the browser toolbar icon or adding right-click "fill entire form" support.
However, since I now that it works, I am fine. However it seems to be a UX flaw for starters.Utviklerrespons
postet 7 år sidenUPDATE: Thank you for your update and feedback! I will consider your suggestion in the next update and will try to make these options more intuitive.
--------
Hello,
The rating is a little dissapointing because Fake Data knows to fill entire forms at once.
The default shortcut for that is Cmd + Shift + Double Click on a Mac, or Alt + Shift + Double click on Windows and Linux.
If you are having any trouble with that, please send an email at frustrations@haterapps.com and I can help you. - Vurdert til 5 ut av 5av Olloff, 7 år sidentl/dr: Absolutely wonderful extension.
Pros:
1) powered by faker.js library capable to generate almost any data for dozens of different locales;
2) extensible with javascript, so it can do anything, ANYTHING YOU WANT (except sandwiches, believe me, I tried);
3) supports custom inputs which means you can fill previously filled forms with one (well, actually two) clicks;
4) supports using window. properties, so you can generate logically bound data (generate (gender) male -> (full name) John Ronald Reuel Tolkien -> (initials) J. R. R. -> (email account) jrr.tolkien@example.com and so on) with idk, 3-5 mins of coding.
Cons:
1) can autodetect inputs as long as their name or id are exact same as generator name;
-----My mistake, but i doomed to use this extension with crapcoded apps, so I'll never see this feature working-----
2) currently you'll need to switch locale manually in the settings (this matters if you need both localized and english generators, like chinese names but latin emails).
-----It appears i was wrong, see developer answer.-----
Edit:
I need to be more careful with my statements, so I'll just add 2 Lorem ipsums to overall score.

postet 7 år sidenHello Olloff,
Thank you for your review!
I completely agree with your cons, but I want to mention few things, just to make sure that you are getting the most from the extension:
1) The fields are automatically detected by their name or their id as long as it's exactly the same with the generator name. If not, then you will have to manually select it, like you said.
2) It might not be very intuitive, but you can actually change the locale setting for a specific generator or a specific field by using the custom code feature. In the future, if there will be a menu for "Extra options" for each individual field, changing locales will be there. - Vurdert til 3 ut av 5av SkywalkerPL, 8 år sidenThis plugin only works with proper HTML inputs. It won't insert content into WYSIWYG editors (any divs that are made to be editable via JS) nor javascript alert popups.
Also author apparently refuses to add an auto-fill option which is quite a deal-breaker if you're into automation and speeding up your tests.
Overall... decent plugin if you're not doing much and working only on a short, basic HTML forms. Pointless otherwise.Utviklerrespons
postet 8 år sidenHello SkywalkerPL,
Thank you for your review and suggestions.
I understand that the missing features you mentioned are a deal-breaker and are making the addon pointless for more complicated tasks.
To prove that I value your review and opinion so much, I have a surprise for you, packed with one good news and two bad news:
- the good news - the next version of the addon (v1.12.0) has been submitted for approval and will contain a feature to fill an entire form at once with fake data
- the bad news #1 - from past experiences, the approval process on Firefox takes a while.
- the bad news #2 - this is regarding the other two features you mentioned:
-- Inserting or manipulating any kind of data in alert popups is not possible due to browser limitations.
-- Inserting data in WYSIWYG editors might be possible but will require different implementation for each editor, which will make the addon bloated.
