Description
As a tester, I want Faker Library to store the synthetic test data in a machine-readable format so that I can easily repeat a failed test case.
When I use Faker in my test script, the data is stored in my variables and I can use those to find the data. This process is very laborious.
Perhaps Faker could also work with the log file to ensure that the same data is used repeatedly and that the test case can be used for troubleshooting.

Research direction
The issue names no files or tests; begin by tracing how Faker data is stored in Robot Framework test-script variables and how logging is handled. Done means synthetic data is emitted in a machine-readable log and can be reused to repeat a failed test case.
