<div>I have just customized an import. My new import loads a screen (a set of plates) using "omero import" command line tool on a directory (I think it is the only way to do it in Python) and adds annotations on the wells, plates and screen. It is
working quite nicely, however I am not too sure how to create my integration tests. All the plate directories I have are several gigabytes big and I don't know how to create my own XML metadata file for a plate. All my attempts create orphaned images at the
import. Ideally, I would like to be able to load a mini-plate successfully in a few seconds, a minute top.</div>

<div>For integration testing, your requirements make complete sense. You might want to</div>
<div>use Bio-Formats test images [1] which have support for HCS layout e.g. </div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>$ touch “test&screens=1.fake"</div>
<div>$ bin/omero import "test&screens=1.fake”</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The OMERO integration tests are making heave use of this functionality for importing</div>
<div>images without the need for real data - see for instance the CLI import integration tests [2].</div>
