Show HN: Free tool to generate realistic QBO sandbox data for integration testing

If you've ever built a QuickBooks Online integration, you know the sandbox comes with minimal data. You end up spending hours manually creating test invoices, customers, and transactions through the UI before you can even start testing your actual integration.

I built EasyTestData (EasyTestData.com) to fix this. It generates deterministic, realistic financial data and loads it into your QBO sandbox via the API. Pick an industry template and a business scenario, and you get a complete set of entities and transactions β€” invoices with proper payment terms, bills with realistic expense categories, payments, deposits, journal entries, the whole ledger.

8 industry templates (SaaS, restaurant, retail, construction, healthcare, nonprofit, real estate, professional services) and 7 scenarios (healthy small biz, rapid growth, cash crisis, seasonal, audit nightmare, mature stable, new company). Data is tagged so you can cleanly purge it when done.

Free to use. Looking for feedback from anyone building QBO integrations β€” what scenarios would help your testing?
