Running Data Generator

EMS Data Generator for PostgreSQL is a powerful utility for generating test data for several PostgreSQL database tables at once. The application provides many features to generate test data in a simple and direct way.

Data Generator for PostgreSQL provides you with an easy-to-use Wizard that guides you through all the steps of the data generation process: you can define tables and fields for generating data, set value ranges, generate char fields by mask, load values for BLOB fields from files, get lists of values from SQL queries and more.

In addition to the GUI version, which is implemented as a Wizard application, Data Generator for PostgreSQL includes a console version intended to run from the Windows command line with a template file name used as the execution parameter.

To run Data Generator for PostgreSQL, click its icon or caption in the Data Manipulation section and follow the steps of the Wizard. If necessary, you can click the Arrow-down button to open the menu, where you can specify a template and then run the wizard/console with the template.

To manage configuration files (templates), use the corresponding Manage templates link. In this case, you will be redirected to the Template Management section of SQL Studio.
