README

Carbon is an excellent library to work with time in PHP projects. The Spatie\TestTime\TestTime class contains a few functions that under the hood manipulate the time that's considered the current time by Carbon.

// the flow of time is frozen
TestTime::freeze();

// we're now one year in the future
TestTime::addYear();

// will report the real current year + 1
$year = (new Carbon())->format('Y');

You can also pass a format and time.

TestTime::freeze('Y-m-d', '2019-06-12');

Progressing time

You can progress the time with any of the carbon functions starting with add or sub.

TestTime::addMinute();

TestTime::subHours(5);

// you can also chain calls
