1. Mocking User Profiles

using Dev.Util.Testing;

var user = new {
    FullName = Generate.RandomName(),        // "Alice Smith"
    Job = Generate.RandomJobTitle(),         // "Software Engineer"
    Company = Generate.RandomCompany(),      // "Acme Corp"
    Email = Generate.RandomEmail(),          // "alice.smith@example.com"
    Phone = Generate.RandomPhoneNumber()     // "(555) 123-4567"
};

2. Generating Addresses

string address = Generate.RandomAddress(); 
// Output: "421 Willow Dr, Seattle"

string street = Generate.RandomStreet(); // "Main St"
string city = Generate.RandomCity();     // "New York"

3. Content Seeding

// Generate a 20-word description
string bio = Generate.RandomText(20); 
// "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..."

4. Dates & Numbers

DateTime dob = Generate.RandomDate(1980, 2000);
int score = Generate.RandomInt(0, 100);
bool active = Generate.RandomBool();

All data is generated in-memory using System.Random. It is designed for speed and utility in local testing environments.
