Test data as code: YAML rules, Git versioned, & CI/CD ready
GoMask as Code brings test data management into your Git workflow. Define masking rules in YAML, commit alongside your schema, and deploy through GitHub Actions, GitLab CI, or Jenkins. No more waiting for test data refreshes. No more tickets. No more compliance gaps. Schema changes and data rules travel together in a single commit. Every change is version-controlled and audit-ready.
We built GoMask as Code because our own team kept asking for it.
We already had a platform for safe test data. But developers on the team didn't want to touch the UI. They wanted masking rules in YAML, sat next to schema definitions, deployed through the same pipeline as everything else.
We talked to data engineers on Reddit about how they handle test data. Top response was brutal: "Everywhere I've worked with sensitive data, everybody ended up secretly working off prod."
Not because they're reckless. The safe path just takes too long. Tickets, waiting, manual refresh cycles.
GoMask as Code cuts that out. Rules in YAML, committed to Git, deployed automatically. Safe test data without the bottleneck.
