Testing

All PHPUnit tests are based on the DemoSeeder seed. To run tests, follow these steps:

1. Create a new database and a .env.testing file (cp .env .env.testing) and reference the DB in your .env.testing.
2. Run php artisan app:test --refresh --skip This will:
   1. Run migrations php artisan migrate --env=testing
   2. Run seeds php artisan db:seed --class=DemoSeeder --env=testing
3. Run php artisan test or vendor/bin/phpunit

Run specific tests

You can also run specific tests in isolation:

# Runs a specific test file
php artisan test --filter NameOfTestFile

# Runs a specific test inside the specified test file
php artisan test tests/Feature/MyTestFile.php --filter testTargetMethod 

Note: To re-run all migrations you can use this command php artisan migrate:fresh --seed --seeder=DemoSeeder --env=testing
