Data Generator for Jira - Jira 9 and/or source code?

Hi Atlassian Team,

are you planning to update Data Generator for Jira app to Jira 9 or is it possible to access the source code?

Cheers

Have you actually tried to use the latest app version in Jira 9, even if they are not marked compatible?

In my experience, Atlassian forgets about updating these, but there is good chance it will “just work”.

Hi @aron.gombas

of course I tried, all app pages are not loading due to @SupportedMethods

Cheers

I am also interested in this update. I’ve also been unsuccessful.

Hello! You can find J9 compatible release 5.0.0 here: https://marketplace.atlassian.com/apps/1210725/data-generator-for-jira/version-history

@FilipNowak it seems like the app is marked “archived” and that there is no 5.0.0 version available in the version history?

Sorry for that, we’ve made a mistake and had to pull 5.0.0 down. It will be released again in December.

Can we get it made public? In the mean time there’s a vendor that has listed a Data Generator for Jira which is going to cause confusion.

@tpettersen - any chance we can get your help here (both with the making the listing public again and sorting the naming confusion out) as I would think your team has interest here?

@FilipNowak are there any plans to make this available for Jira 10+? Or make it open source so that vendors can either fork it or provide PRs to make it Jira 10 compatible?

Hi!

Unfortunately currently there are no plans to further support this plugin, nor to open source it.

That’s a shame, as it means I will have to run a decompiler

@mkemp @FilipNowak @tpettersen @MalathiVangalapati can I please have Atlassian blessing to copy parts of this plugin to create a new supported app that we will publish to the Atlassian Marketplace and make sure to keep updated with newer versions of Jira?

Being able to generate large amounts of data on the fly is important for DC testing purposes.
