A self-contained test case (code and data) that triggers the error.
If it only does so probabilistically, once in every-so-many runs,
that's fine.

Perhaps you could sanitize or anonymize the data? It's unlikely that a
bug of this sort has all that much to do with the exact data content.
Whether the bug would still show for a "sample" is a different question,
and one you'd have to resolve by experiment.
