public static make($class, $params = null, $testCase = null)

Instantiates a class without executing a constructor. Properties and methods can be set as a second parameter. Even protected and private properties can be set.

<?php
Stub::make('User');
Stub::make('User', ['name' => 'davert']);
?>

Accepts either name of class or object of that class

<?php
Stub::make(new User, ['name' => 'davert']);
?>

To replace method provide it’s name as a key in second parameter and it’s return value or callback function as parameter

<?php
Stub::make('User', ['save' => function () { return true; }]);
Stub::make('User', ['save' => true]);
?>
