As an engineer, I want to have a well-seeded database so that I am able to simulate a number of different scenarios for the user stories.

• By doing this, you really set yourselves up to tackle many of the points throughout the tiers. In the long run, this will save you, potentially, tons of time.
• For example, seed hundreds of products with dummy data so that when you get to the “pagination” user story, you won’t have to worry about adding more products.
• Likewise, add a bunch of users with products in their carts so editing the cart can be worked on without already having the “add to cart” functionality built out.
