Resin.io API Testing

Hello, for testing and demonstration purposes, is there any easy way to add several devices that don’t exist to one of your applications? It would be essentially adding fake devices, which would help with testing something that interfaces with the Resin API.

Also, I wasn’t able to tag this post with something like ‘api.’

I know that quite a few of our customers use QEMU emulation for development purposes (https://github.com/resin-io/qemu).
There’s also the fact that the device identifier isn’t based on any property of the hardware, but created when it connects. So if you re-flash a card the ‘device’ associated with the overwritten OS persists.
Hope this helps.
