Create testing DB from production DB #88

Open mtbentley opened 9 years ago

mtbentley commented 9 years ago

As per conversation between matthew and mason in #cwru on irc.case.edu at 11am on 15/04/24:

  1. Script to create a clean DB dump from SIS once per semester, which can then be published
  2. Script to take real student data (wishlists + schedules) from production, anonymize them, and use a subset of that for testing -OR- create real-looking fake data with factory-girl + forgery

Both of these can be used for testing (with travis-ci) and published for other students/student groups to use.
