How many times does this happens to you that when you’re building UIs, you add placeholders (“Lorem Ipsum”, “John Doe”, etc.). I’m pretty sure you have come across this scenario one time or another. While, it’s perfectly okay to use these placeholder texts, sometimes, it’s important to test things using “real-world” values for real-world scenarios. To cope with this, a PR in Laravel recently introduced a handy fake() helper that lets you do just that! The fake() helper https://github.com/laravel/framework/pull/42844 by Tim MacDonald adds a global fake() helper.
