Here is a method that generates strings with a little more variability:
SELECT
(
SELECT string_agg(x, '')
FROM (
SELECT chr(ascii('A') + (random() * 25)::integer)
-- reference 'b' so it is correlated and re-evaluated
FROM generate_series(1, 40 + b * 0)
) AS y(x)
)
FROM generate_series(1,5) as a(b);
string_agg
