Take the tour ×  Being Senior QA, I often face one and the same
problem: for every project I'm involved in I need to prepare /
collect / generate various sort of testing data. It might be

last year only:    1. XML files (application integration layer
transport testing)   2. Set of as-much-as-possible video files
with different format encoding (online converter testing)   3.
ISBN number generation (publishing store testing)   4. Typical
office-like set of docs (MS / Open Office, PDF, PS, etc.) of
various versions / formats (testing proprietary online doc
viewer similar to Google Docs)   5. ...And so on.  So...
basically I often spend too much time for preparing / collecting
things folks in the next room already have "on the shelf".
That's why I'd like to organize a centralized solution, like
