  NASA's Transiting Exoplanet Survey Satellite (TESS) has begun a two-year
survey of most of the sky, which will include lightcurves for thousands of
solar-like oscillators sampled at a cadence of two minutes. To prepare for this
steady stream of data, we present a mock catalogue of lightcurves, designed to
realistically mimic the properties of the TESS sample. In the process, we also
present the first public release of the asteroFLAG Artificial Dataset
Generator, which simulates lightcurves of solar-like oscillators based on input
mode properties. The targets are drawn from a simulation of the Milky Way's
populations and are selected in the same way as TESS's true Asteroseismic
Target List. The lightcurves are produced by combining stellar models,
pulsation calculations and semi-empirical models of solar-like oscillators. We
describe the details of the catalogue and provide several examples. We provide
pristine lightcurves to which noise can be added easily. This mock catalogue
will be valuable in testing asteroseismology pipelines for TESS and our methods
can be applied in preparation and planning for other observatories and
observing campaigns.
