It is challenge for developers, especially those working on large distributions, to maintain test data which is consistent with their production environments. For example, developers may want to write unit tests for an indicator report that includes most of the metadata and concepts used by the distribution.
- Metadata Deploy module addresses this challenge for a lot metadata types - but doesn't include concepts, as these don't lend themselves to being described in code. Also distributions commonly deploy concepts via a SQL dump (e.g. CIEL)
- PIH team have written code to generate a MariaDB copy of a production database but there's no easy way to specify what content should be included.
...
- Produce a Maven plugin which can generate concept test data
- Plugin should be configurable in terms of which locales to include, which reference term sources.
- Plugin should be modular and support different sources of concept details (JDBC, OpenConceptLab API)
Extra Credit
- Support other domain objects such as Drugs etc[ Possibly ] work with OpenConceptLab to provide API support on their end
