How about Theme Test Data instead?
Yes, you're right, the data is not an acceptance test but is for acceptance test, and now that I think about it better maybe "Theme Dummy Data" could better explain the intent of the repo. (trimmed out also the word test)
What do you think?
perhaps simply "demo content"
"Demo Content" also sounds right.
Adding more:
"Sample content" "Sample data" "Dummy content"
"Test Site Content" is how I reference this handy bundle of content in my personal notes
perhaps "Sample Theme Data"
The word "Test" is not wrong as long as it's not coupled with "Unit", in this case. I can see it validly be named Wordpress Test Data
, as much as the other (good) suggestions.
The words Sample
, Test
, and Dummy
lend the same signification to the Data
or Content
that is generated.
A very verbose variant could be Sample Data for WordPress Theme Testing
Theme Unit Test is actually a proper name and this link would explain it https://www.testorigen.com/unit-testing-the-path-to-test-unit/
Since the content is meant for testing, we can’t call it demo, dummy or content data.
Unit testing has been around for a long time and current name was chosen for a reason.
Making Theme Unit Test Data shorter makes sense and it’s up to you folks to determine what this will be, but I vote that we retain the words “Unit Test”.
This is a proposal to change the name of this repository for better reflect what it does because this is more a user front-end test and not a unit test -> https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acceptance_testing
I know the file is as a decade old but when I read unit test this confusing me and the risk of feeding wrong terminologies in young developers is high.
