README

A set of helpful assertions when testing Laravel applications.

Requirements

Your application must be running the Laravel 5.5 or higher and using Laravel's testing harness.

Installation

You may install these additional assertions with Composer by running:

composer require --dev jasonmccreary/laravel-test-assertions

Afterwards, add the trait to your base TestCase class:

<?php
namespace Tests;

use JMac\Testing\Traits\AdditionalAssertions;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\TestCase as BaseTestCase;

abstract class TestCase extends BaseTestCase
{
    use CreatesApplication, AdditionalAssertions;
}

Assertions

This package adds several assertions helpful when writing HTTP Tests.

assertActionUsesFormRequest(string $controller, string $method, string $form_request)

Verifies the action for a given controller performs validation using the given form request.

assertRouteUsesFormRequest(string $routeName, string $formRequest)

Verifies that the corresponding action/controller, for a given route name performs the validation using the given form request.

assertActionUsesMiddleware(string $controller, string $method, string|array $middleware)

Verifies the action for a given controller uses the given middleware or set of middleware.

assertRouteUsesMiddleware(string $routeName, array $middlewares, bool $exact)

Verifies the route for a given route name uses all the given middlewares or only the given set of middlewares.

assertValidationRules(array $expected, array $actual)

Verifies the expected subset of validation rules for fields are within a set of validation rules. Rules may be passed as a delimited string or array.

assertExactValidationRules(array $expected, array $actual)

Verifies the expected set of validation rules for fields exactly match a set of validation rules. Rules may be passed as a delimited string or array.

assertValidationRuleContains($rule, string $class)

Verifies the rule or rules contains an instance of the given Rule class.

assertViewHasNull($key)

Verifies the view data $key has an explicit value of null. Note: is a TestResponse assertion. It must be called on the response of a view.

Matchers

LaravelMatchers::isModel(Model $model = null)

Matches an argument is the same as $model. When called without $model, will match any argument of type Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model.

LaravelMatchers::isCollection(Collection $collection = null)

Matches an argument equals $collection. When called without $collection, will match any argument of type Illuminate\Support\Collection.

LaravelMatchers::isEloquentCollection(Collection $collection = null)

Matches an argument equals $collection. When called without $collection, will match any argument of type \Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Collection.

Creation Methods

This package also provides methods for quickly creating common objects used within Laravel application to use when testing.

createFormRequest(string $class, array $data = [])

Creates an instance of the given Form Request class with the given request data.

Support Policy

Starting with version 2, this package will only support the latest stable version of Laravel (currently Laravel 8). If you need to support older versions of Laravel, you may use version 1 or upgrade your application (try using Shift).

This package still follows semantic versioning. However, it does so with respect to its own code. Any breaking changes will increase its major version number. Otherwise, minor version number increases will contain new features. This includes changes for future versions of Laravel.
