FAQ

Should I use core or java-api?

Today either is fine. java-api currently depends on core directly and exposes the same behavior.

How do I keep generated data stable between test runs?

Use seeded generators (constructor overloads or GeneratorConfig.seed(...)) and reuse the same config.

How do I apply locale consistently?

Build one GeneratorConfig with locale(...) and pass it to all locale-aware generators in the fixture pipeline.

How do I generate structured records?

Use Field to bind provider names and Schema to generate single records or batches.

How do I extend providers dynamically?

Use ProviderHub.register(...) and optional aliases via registerAlias(...).

Is Kotlin/Scala API parity complete?

Not yet. Current delivery focus is Java parity first.
