One click to populate HTML forms with dummy data. Works out of the box.
Dummy Form Filler Extension
- Lack of features
- Works out of the box
- Shortcut: Alt+Shift+D (can be changed in chrome://extensions/configureCommands)
- Configurable (basics)
- Perceives basic semantic hints (e.g. when a label contains 'age', 'year', 'phone' strings) and limitations (e.g. min, minlength)
- Click again to reset all the forms (though should keep the original values)
- Supported elements:
- input: text, email, number, radio, checkbox, tel, password, date, url
- select
- textarea
Please note the logic of populating forms may not suite everyone, e.g. data that is already filled (existed before the page was loaded) will not be cleared and fitted with dummy data. If you think some behavior is terribly illogical, please give me a shout.
