Chand,
I have been thinking along the same lines.
I think this would be well worth considering as it would document how to
do a lot of the clever things that the seed/demo data already does for
you.
One problem with this is that for a production deployment, being forced
to use Selenium to install seed data would be about as popular a combo
as flatulence and space suits!
So the question is, can anyone think of a clever way to offer both
options without doubling up i.e. maintaining two sets of seed/demo data?
Or, could the demo data be migrated to Selenium leaving only the seed
data to be loaded directly?
Any thoughts?
