Laravel - Getting Started - Creating Tests

To create a new test case, use the make:test Artisan command. By default, tests will be placed in the tests/Feature directory:

    
    php artisan make:test UserTest
	

If you would like to create a test within the tests/Unit directory, you may use the --unit option when executing the make:test command:

    
    php artisan make:test UserTest --unit
	

If you would like to create a Pest PHP test, you may provide the --pest option to the make:test command:

    
    php artisan make:test UserTest --pest
    php artisan make:test UserTest --unit --pest
	

Test stubs may be customized using stub publishing.

Once the test has been generated, you may define test methods as you normally would using PHPUnit. To run your tests, execute the vendor/bin/phpunit or php artisan test command from your terminal:

    
    assertTrue(true);
        }
    }
	

If you define your own setUp / tearDown methods within a test class, be sure to call the respective parent::setUp() / parent::tearDown() methods on the parent class.
