Abstract

U teorijskom dijelu ovog diplomskog rada napravljen je pregled postojećih komercijalnih i open-source alata koji rješavaju problem generiranja smislenih testnih podataka za relacijske baze podataka. Analizom je utvrđeno da ne postoji alat koji nudi zadovoljavajući skup funkcionalnosti. Vodeća postojeća rješenja podržavaju spajanje na samo jedan sustav za upravljanje bazama podataka, ne nude funkcionalnost vizualizacije generiranih podataka i dostupni su na samo jednom operacijskom sustavu. Cilj diplomskog rada bio je izraditi funkcionalnu aplikaciju koja rješava navedeni problem te implementira funkcionalnosti koje postojeća rješenja na tržištu nemaju. Napravljen je pregled pristupa i radnih okvira za izradu višeplatformskih stolnih aplikacija te je za izradu aplikacije odabran Electron. Electron je radni okvir otvorenog koda kojim je moguće napraviti stolnu aplikaciju koristeći web tehnologije te isporučiti tu aplikaciju na tri vodeća operacijska sustava: Windows, Linux i MacOS. Za vizualizaciju generiranih testnih podataka korištena je JavaScript biblioteka Echarts. Demonstriran je rad i način korištenja razvijenog programskog rješenja te je dana procjena uporabljivosti kao i planovi za budući razvoj.

Abstract (english)

In the theoretical part of this graduate thesis, an overview of the existing commercial and open-source tools that solve the problem of generating meaningful test data for relational databases was made. The analysis found that there is currently no tool that satisfies a core set of expected functionalities. Leading solutions support connection with only one database management system. Also, they do not offer the functionality of visualizing the generated data and they are only available on one operating system. The aim of this this thesis was to create a functional app that solves this problem and implements functionalities that the existing solutions do not have. An overview of approaches and frameworks for the development of multi-platform desktop applications was made and Electron was selected as the tool for the development. Electron is an open source framework that allows development of a desktop application using web technologies and deliver the application to three leading operating systems: Windows, Linux and MacOS. The Javascript Echarts library was used to visualize the generated test data. The functionalities of the developed application were demonstrated, an assesment of the usability was given and plans for the future development were discussed.
