incraigulous/data-factories
===========================

A data factory helper class for mocking data. This is inspired by Laravel's model factories, the difference being that data factories are not tied to a model. Data factories are great for mocking api responses, requests or other data not persisted to a database. Data Factories are not dependant on Laravel, so you can use this package anywhere.
