Every time I needed a CSV of fake users for an import test or a Postman/Newman data-driven run, I ended up writing the same throwaway Faker script. So I turned it into a CLI: csv-faker-generator .

One command, no script

npx csv-faker-generator -c 'id:uuid,name:name,email:email,plan:pick:free|pro|team' -r 3 -o users.csv
