set-testusers

When working on building a website or extension, you often need some test users to use for your work. This command adds a handful of test user accounts for you. You can add the --howmany parameter to define how many users you want to create. Otherwise, 100 will be created by default.

This is not meant to be used in production, necessarily. Instead, the intent is for this command to be used to help you prepare demos and test environments more easily. This could be for sales presentations, conference/user group demos, internal demos, etc. It's really up to you.

Output

If successful, you should see a message for each test user, stating the result of the creation of the account.

User Created:

Successfully created user: testuser-1 ({[email protected]}).  

User Exists:

User already exists, not created: testuser-1 ({[email protected]}).  

Error Creating User:

Error creating user: testuser-1 ({[email protected]}).  

(if this happens, check the Admin Log to see why, or run set-debug and then check the Log4NET log file for more details.)

Additional Notes

The password for each user account is the same. See the command notes above.

This command has a companion command, delete-testusers. The delete-testusers command will remove the users created by the set-testusers command, here.
