Faker is a PHP library that generates fake data for you. Whether you need to bootstrap your database, create good-looking XML documents, fill-in your persistence to stress test it, or anonymize data taken from a production service, Faker is for you.
Uses formatters for the different types of data (e.g. names, addresses, etc) you want to generate
$faker = Faker\Factory::create();
for ($i=0; $i < 10; $i++) {
echo $faker->name, "\n";
}
