Boundary data faker
===================

[](#boundary-data-faker)

To properly test boundary conditions of your form / entity, you need to generate quite a lot of data, which exceeds boundary conditions / values.

Say, you have User entity with 2 required fields `name` and `email`, and 1 optional, which is `age`.

```
The validation rules are:
- name
    - 3-20 chars long
- email
    - 5-50 chars long
    - a regular expression
- age
    - numeric
    - greater then 18

```

In order to have all cases, which must throw an exception covered, you need to manually create quite a big amount of data: - \['name' =&gt; ''\]
\- \['name' =&gt; '12'\]
\- \['name' =&gt; 'a string, which length is more than 20 chars'\] - \['email' =&gt; ''\]
\- \['email' =&gt; '1234'\]
\- \['email' =&gt; 'a string, which length is more than 50 chars'\] - \['age' =&gt; 'string'\] - \['age' =&gt; 0\]
