FileMill, the test-file factory for upload edge cases

Editorial interest 82/100 Selection signal · not a rating of the site

A Mac utility that generates valid or deliberately corrupted files in 153 formats at exact byte sizes for developer and QA testing.

Landing page captured for the 2026-08-20 issue.

Why it surfaced

FileMill targets the neglected corners of upload testing: files one byte under, at, and over a limit; mangled headers; suspicious filenames; and formats such as WOFF2, SQLite, torrents, certificates, and 3D models. Its browser demo runs without uploading anything, while the Mac app offers a 14-day trial and a €12 one-time purchase.
