  • Patent number: 7702613
    Abstract: Software-based systems and methods that may be used to validate and distribute test data are disclosed. In some embodiments, the data distribution method comprises combining data requests from multiple users into a single request, copying test data from enterprise databases in response to that request, and storing the data in a test data database. The data distribution method further comprises selecting test data contained in the test data database and copying that data to an output file in response to a user's access, and may further include deleting the test data copied from the test data database. The data distribution method may further comprise validating the test data and deleting erroneous test data from the test database. Copying selected test data to an output file may be performed in accordance with a user-selected format and a user-defined output file name and path.
