Now the challenge is that if I call in my test makeCashPeriod() I get a nice randomized model, but I need to change some of the parameters depending by the test. Can I achieve that with the language from intelliJ usign something ,do not know, maybe generics, default constructor values, other?

You could move the default parameters from CashPeriod constructor to makeCashPeriod function.
That way if you don't specify a parameter, it will be random, if you do, it will be whatever you specified.

fun makeCashPeriod(
        period: String = randomString(),
        status: String = randomString(),
        type: String = randomString(),
        numberOfEntries: Int = randomInt(),
        isCashCountRequired: Boolean = randomBoolean(),
        mutationBalance: String = randomString(),
        canBeClosed: Boolean = randomBoolean(),
        remark: String = randomString()
    )CashPeriod = CashPeriod(period, status, type, numberOfEntries, isCashCountRequired, mutationBalance, canBeClosed, remark)
