> As discussed recently on our dev list the {{ContentBuilder}} currently provided by the Sling Mocks library [1] can be very useful in testing.  _(edit: while implementing I have diverged from that idea and created a new, more powerful {{ResourceBuilder}} API, for now that {{ContentBuilder}} stays unchanged)_.
> In order to make it usable for both client-side and server-side testing (as well as in server-side code) I'm planning to
> * Extract it into its own module
> * Define an API that allows for creating nodes and properties, importing JSON and other files via the Sling ContentLoader and providing a simple a way to cleanup the test content
> * Implement (first) a server-side version of that API
> * Implement (as a second priority) a client-side version that can be used in test run via HTTP
> This shouldn't affect the existing Sling Mocks library users, except maybe forcing them to rebuild their tests to use the new API.
