If you are testing your application and you need to make your config constant or change it to a specific value for testing you can mock it simply! Config facade of Laravel has a method named set() which overwrites the default value of configs like this: Config::set('name', 'Laravel'); Enter fullscreen mode So in testing env you can do something like this: public function test_that_home_page_is_working() { Config::set('name', 'Laravel'); $this->get('/')->assertSee("Laravel"); } In general of of benefits of using Facades in Laravel is because of their testability.
