Laravel testing strategies with PHPUnit, Pest, model factories, HTTP tests, Sanctum authentication testing, mocking, and coverage.

  • Writing Laravel tests with PHPUnit
  • SKILL.md covers When to Activate, TDD Workflow for Laravel, Setup and Model Factories, plus 12 more sections
  • Reaches w3.org
  • Driving a Laravel feature test-first

What it does

Laravel TDD is an agent skill from affaan-m/ECC. Laravel testing strategies with PHPUnit, Pest, model factories, HTTP tests, Sanctum authentication testing, mocking, and coverage. Use when writing Laravel tests with PHPUnit or Pest, or driving a Laravel feature test-first.

Its SKILL.md is about 4.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Backend & APIs, covering Backend development, Test-driven development and API testing. It works with Laravel. The repository describes itself as: The agent harness performance optimization system. Skills, instincts, memory, security, and research-first development for Claude Code, Codex, Opencode, Cursor and beyond. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Writing Laravel tests with PHPUnit
  • Driving a Laravel feature test-first

Example prompts

  • “/laravel-tdd”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 2d515e4. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are php, xml and bash).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • w3.org

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Laravel TDD loads about 4.5k tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 59 tokens; SKILL.md has 303 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~59
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~4.5k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Laravel Testing with TDD

Test-driven development for Laravel applications using PHPUnit, Pest, Laravel factories, and testing helpers.

When to Activate

  • Writing new Laravel applications or features
  • Implementing API endpoints with Sanctum or Passport authentication
  • Testing Eloquent models, relationships, scopes, and accessors
  • Setting up testing infrastructure for Laravel projects
  • Writing feature tests for HTTP controllers and form requests
  • Mocking external services (queues, mail, notifications, HTTP)

TDD Workflow for Laravel

Red-Green-Refactor Cycle
php
// Step 1: RED — Write a failing test
public function test_a_product_can_be_created(): void
{
    $product = Product::factory()->create(['name' => 'Test Product']);
    $this->assertDatabaseHas('products', ['name' => 'Test Product']);
}

// Step 2: GREEN — Write the migration, model, and factory
// Step 3: REFACTOR — Improve while keeping tests green

Base TestCase Setup
php
namespace Tests;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\TestCase as BaseTestCase;

abstract class TestCase extends BaseTestCase
{
    protected function setUp(): void
    {
        parent::setUp();
        // Call $this->withoutExceptionHandling() only in tests that
        // test non-HTTP exceptions; it suppresses assertStatus() etc.
    }

    // Helper: Authenticate and return user
    protected function actingAsUser(): mixed
    {
        $user = \App\Models\User::factory()->create();
        $this->actingAs($user);
        return $user;
    }

    protected function actingAsAdmin(): mixed
    {
        $admin = \App\Models\User::factory()->admin()->create();
        $this->actingAs($admin);
        return $admin;
    }
}

Model Factories

php
// database/factories/UserFactory.php
class UserFactory extends Factory
{
    protected static ?string $password = null;

    public function definition(): array
    {
        return [
            'name' => fake()->name(),
            'email' => fake()->unique()->safeEmail(),
            'email_verified_at' => now(),
            'password' => static::$password ??= Hash::make('password'),
            'remember_token' => Str::random(10),
            'role' => 'user',
        ];
    }

    public function admin(): static
    {
        return $this->state(fn (array $attributes) => ['role' => 'admin']);
    }

    public function unverified(): static
    {
        return $this->state(fn (array $attributes) => ['email_verified_at' => null]);
    }
}

// database/factories/ProductFactory.php
class ProductFactory extends Factory
{
    public function definition(): array
    {
        return [
            'name' => fake()->unique()->words(3, true),
            'slug' => fn (array $attrs) => Str::slug($attrs['name']),
            'description' => fake()->paragraph(),
            'price' => fake()->numberBetween(100, 100000),
            'stock' => fake()->numberBetween(0, 100),
            'is_active' => true,
            'user_id' => UserFactory::new(),
        ];
    }

    public function outOfStock(): static
    {
        return $this->state(fn (array $attributes) => ['stock' => 0]);
    }
}
Using Factories
php
$user = User::factory()->create();
$admin = User::factory()->admin()->create();
$product = Product::factory()->create(['user_id' => $user->id]);
$products = Product::factory()->count(10)->create();
$draft = Product::factory()->make(); // Not persisted

// With relationships
$user = User::factory()->has(Product::factory()->count(3))->create();

// Sequences
User::factory()->count(3)->sequence(
    ['role' => 'admin'], ['role' => 'editor'], ['role' => 'user'],
)->create();

    {
        Product::factory()->count(3)->create(['is_active' => true]);

        $this->assertCount(3, Product::active()->get());
    }

    {
        $user = User::factory()->create();

    ]);

    $result = (new PaymentService())->charge(2999);
    $this->assertTrue($result->success);
}

public function test_it_handles_gateway_failure(): void
{
    Http::fake([
        'api.stripe.com/*' => Http::response(['error' => 'card_declined'], 402),
    ]);

    $this->expectException(PaymentFailedException::class);

Storage::fake('public');

$file = UploadedFile::fake()->image('photo.jpg', 200, 200);

    'avatar' => $file,
]);

$response->assertSessionHasNoErrors();
Storage::disk('public')->assertExists('avatars/' . $file->hashName());

{
    $user = User::factory()->create();
    $post = Post::factory()->create(['user_id' => $user->id]);

        ->delete(route('posts.destroy', $post))
        ->assertRedirect();

    $this->assertSoftDeleted($post);
}

Testing Best Practices

DO
  • Use factories over manual create() calls
  • One logical assertion per test
  • Descriptive names: test_guests_cannot_create_products
  • Test edge cases and authorization boundaries
  • Mock external services with Http::fake(), Mail::fake()
  • Use RefreshDatabase for clean state
DON'T
  • Don't test Laravel internals (trust the framework)
  • Don't make tests dependent on each other
  • Don't over-mock — mock only service boundaries
  • Don't test private methods — test through the public interface
  • Don't couple tests to HTML structure

RefreshDatabaseReset database between tests
$this->actingAs($user)Authenticate as user
$this->withToken($token)Bearer token auth for APIs
Model::factory()->create()Create model with factory
Model::factory()->count(5)->create()Create multiple records
Http::fake([...])Mock HTTP calls
Mail::fake()Trap sent mail
Notification::fake()Trap sent notifications
Queue::fake()Trap queued jobs
Event::fake()Trap dispatched events
Storage::fake('public')Trap file operations
assertDatabaseHasAssert DB row exists
assertSoftDeletedAssert soft-delete
assertSessionHasErrorsAssert validation errors
assertForbiddenAssert 403 status
