autoFill.js

a javascript dev utility to auto fill form fields when doing manual tests, to avoid the tedious task of typing everything in.

##Usage Add the script to your page (no dependencies, Bootstrap and jQuery are only included for the layout of the sample page)

<scriptsrc="Scripts/autoFill.js"></script>

Create an object literal (dictionary) referencing the fields that you want to auto populate. The keys should be the name or ID of the element, and the values should be the autofill.FieldTypes that represents what kind of data that element should receive.

varfieldsAndTypes={"txtFirstName": autoFill.fieldTypes.firstName,"gender": autoFill.fieldTypes.radioButton,"ddState": autoFill.fieldTypes.state,"txtEmail": autoFill.fieldTypes.email,"txtMoney": autoFill.fieldTypes.money,"txtDate": autoFill.fieldTypes.date,"txtDecimal": autoFill.fieldTypes.decimal,"age": autoFill.fieldTypes.checkBox};

Initialize autofill and pass in configuration changes to change the format of the output for a given type.

autoFill.init({"decimalPrecision": 3,"dateFormat": "mm/dd/yyyy","startDate": newDate(2013,0,1)});

Have the fields auto populate by calling autoFill.SetFields() and pass in your dictionary of elements and data types.

autoFill.SetFields(fieldsAndTypes)

All data types

 fieldTypes:
{firstName: "firstName",lastName: "lastName",fullName: "fullName",street: "street",city: "city",state: "state",zip: "zip",creditCard: "creditCard",phone: "phone",email: "email",radioButton: "radioButton",checkBox: "checkBox",date: "date",money: "money",wholeNumber: "wholeNumber",decimal: "decimal",text: "text"}

##All config options

config:
{"maxNumberSize": 100,"maxDecimalSize": 100,"decimalPrecision": 2,"dateFormat": "toLocaleDateString",/*toLocaleDateString, toDateString, GMT, mm/dd/yyyy */"startDate": newDate(1975,0,1),"endDate": newDate()}
