libfaketime modifies the system time for a single application
libfaketime intercepts various system calls that applications use to retrieve the current date and time. It can then report user-specified faked dates and times to these applications. This allows us to modify the system time an application sees without having to change the time system-wide. The faketime wrapper can be used from command line. Check the documentation on how to integrate into installed applications.
