Description

@Kanishkrawatt

Overview

We need a use-case article demonstrating how to leverage external libraries like Faker to make API testing more robust. The guide should show how generating realistic, dynamic data (such as names, addresses, or emails) prevents "stale" test results and better simulates real-world user behavior compared to static hardcoded values.

Technical Specifications

To ensure the blog is correctly parsed by our site, please follow these guidelines:

  • File Location: Add your blog post in MDX format within the /guides/community-content folder.
  • Asset Location: All images must be placed in a dedicated subfolder: images/[your-blog-title]/.
  • Image Formats: * Static images must be in .webp format.
    • Animated demonstrations/screenshares are accepted in .gif format.

Writing Guidelines

Contributors must follow our official writing standards to ensure consistency and quality.

Acceptance Criteria

  • Content is written in MDX and placed in the correct directory.
