This is not in VFP, but it might do what you're describing.

This is something I had working for the much simpler FPD environment
where all operator controls were funneled through a few mechanics, but
haven't touched yet with VFP - although I'd like to as well.

One thing I have done with VFP, and mentioned before in a different
context, is a label class that I place in the upper right hand corner of
each form. The caption is only visible on a dev machine. It shows the
form name (red, bold) and supports a right-click menu. In the
right-click menu are several test tools, one being a "TEST THIS FORM"
option that, when clicked, looks for a "LOAD TEST DATA" method in the
form that loads the form's entry fields with test data. This helps a bit
with testing and might be a player in a more elaborate tool such as you
describe. For example, it could draw test data from a table to support
different tests, and maybe a companion table could contain other
controls used to drive a more global test driver.

Be nice if someone can point to something already developed for this
purpose.
