- Rated 5 out of 5by MarNicGit, 5 years agoI 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.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 15038668, 6 years agoThis 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. - Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14691812, 6 years agoThis is far, far better than all the other form fillers i've tried.

- Rated 5 out of 5by Firefox user 14231883, 7 years agoThe 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.Developer response
posted 7 years agoUPDATE: 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. - Rated 5 out of 5by Olloff, 7 years agotl/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.

posted 7 years agoHello 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.
