Delete test data from Magento

During development, testing especially performance testing, you end up having loads of test data and you want to make that test data gets deleted before going live so that you can rely on your reports with the correct data. As Magento uses EAV database design which means there are so many tables involved to clean order, customer or logs data. So we decided to come up with mysql script which helps you delete test data from Magento within fraction of seconds.

N.B – This MySQL script has been tested on Magento versions from 1.4.0.1 to 1.9.0.1. Also please take back up the database prior running these scripts on production
