Faker

Faker is a package that generates random fake data for you.

Requirements:

PHP5

To use it simply create a new faker object and then call a subclass & method.

eg:

<?php
	// Do this so it can find the classes needed
	include( 'faker.php' );
	// Create new faker object
	$faker = new Faker;
	// Output a random name
	echo $faker->Name->name;
?>

You only need to include faker.php as it includes all the files under lib/ automatically as they are needed.

CHANGELOG

From my own tests it performs roughly 10x faster than 0.1-dev -- ifunk
0.1-dev Initial Release
