Use this tag for question about Laravel testing

Laravel is built with unit testing in mind. In fact, support for testing with PHPUnit is included out of the box, and a phpunit.xml file is already setup for your application. An example test file is provided in the tests directory.

Defining & Running Tests

To create a test case, simply create a new test file in the tests/Unit or tests/Feature directory. The test class should extend TestCase. You may then define test methods as you normally would when using PHPUnit.

An Example Test Class

class FooTest extends TestCase {

    public function testSomethingIsTrue()
    {
        $this->assertTrue(true);
    }

}

You may run all of the tests for your application by executing the php artisan test (or phpunit) command from your terminal.

Note: If you define your own setUp method, be sure to call parent::setUp.
