What problem does EasyCommerce FakerPress solve?

New EasyCommerce stores ship empty — first hour of every dev cycle wasted hand-creating dummy products, orders, and customers just to test workflows. Locale-specific quirks (currency, addresses, names) get faked badly.

What was the outcome of EasyCommerce FakerPress?

One WP-CLI command seeds 500 products, orders, customers, reviews, coupons across 14 generators with locale-aware data. 131 Playwright E2E tests pin every generator and cleanup mode wipes test data before launch.
