Realistic does not mean real
Good demo data should look plausible but remain non-identifying. Reusing production snippets in demos is a common accidental leak path.
Schema-first generation
Define shape first, then fill sample values. This avoids test failures caused by random-but-invalid field structures.
Repeatability matters
Use seeded or versioned mock sets for regression-style QA so failures are reproducible instead of “random one-offs.”
