title: Are there any tools to create dummy objects to use for JUnit test cases?
body: <p>I am writing JUnit test cases to test CRUD operations in DAO classes. It is pretty much boilerplate code and bulk of it is to create the test object and assign dummy values to the instance variables. Are there any tools in Java to create an object and assign dummy values based on the declared type? </p>
  
  <p>I don't want to use JMock or Mockito as I need to interact with the database and test that the CRUD operations are successful.</p>
