Abstract

Metadata of a target data record set population is used to generate a test data record set population for use in data storage system testing. The metadata includes values for metadata parameters for individual target data record sets. The target data record set population as a whole has metadata parameter values distributed among sets of value ranges. A group of proportions is calculated for each set of value ranges. A test data record set population is generated based on the groups of proportions. As generated, the test data record set population meets a set of predetermined criteria.
