  • I am currently working with Typescript as well as C++ and I enjoyed using FakerJS library for testing data. I've checked for C++ libraries and I haven't found anything that could be used for my basic needs (like generating emails, passwords, names, uuids or lorem words) so I just started my own project with idea to deliver such library to C++ developers.

  • faker-cxx

  • What you're describing, just generating random input to test a program, is sometimes called "blind fuzzing" but the state-of-the-art is far beyond that. Maybe try reading through the documentation of e.g. https://github.com/google/AFL to see what a fuzzer does and why just producing random input isn't even scratching the surface.
