Yesterday while reading various Oracle news, I stumbled upon a very
interesting video on Youtube by Oracle:
A final test of an email alert system using production data at a medical insurance company goes awry; thousands of customer names and medical procedures are exposed. Almost 50% of companies use production data for development and testing.
This video caught my attention for two reasons:
1) We in our project too use production data in test environments and sometimes after refersh of test environment all integration things links to production not test servers;
2) We had a similar issue only with SMS not e-mail, but happily for us it wasn't so big as customers got SMS that they usually get, only from test environment;
So what do you think about this, what data do you use in your projects, and does it is good or bad idea, as Oracle still says that almost 50% of companies use production data for development and testing.
