Activate this skill when:
Use search-docs for detailed Pest 4 patterns and documentation.
All tests must be written using Pest. Use php artisan make:test --pest {name}.
tests/Feature and tests/Unit directories.tests/Browser/ directory.it('is true', function () { expect(true)->toBeTrue(); });
php artisan test --compact --filter=testName.php artisan test --compact.php artisan test --compact tests/Feature/ExampleTest.php.Use specific assertions (assertSuccessful(), assertNotFound()) instead of assertStatus():
it('returns all', function () { $this->postJson('/api/docs', [])->assertSuccessful(); });
| Use | Instead of |
|---|---|
assertSuccessful() | assertStatus(200) |
assertNotFound() | assertStatus(404) |
assertForbidden() | assertStatus(403) |
Import mock function before use: use function Pest\Laravel\mock;
Use datasets for repetitive tests (validation rules, etc.):
it('has emails', function (string $email) { expect($email)->not->toBeEmpty(); })->with([ 'james' => '[email protected]', 'taylor' => '[email protected]', ]);
| Feature | Purpose |
|---|---|
| Browser Testing | Full integration tests in real browsers |
| Smoke Testing | Validate multiple pages quickly |
| Visual Regression | Compare screenshots for visual changes |
| Test Sharding | Parallel CI runs |
| Architecture Testing | Enforce code conventions |
Browser tests run in real browsers for full integration testing:
tests/Browser/.Event::fake(), assertAuthenticated(), and model factories.RefreshDatabase for clean state per test.it('may reset the password', function () { Notification::fake();
$this->actingAs(User::factory()->create());
$page = visit('/sign-in');
$page->assertSee('Sign In')
->assertNoJavascriptErrors()
->click('Forgot Password?')
->fill('email', '[email protected]')
->click('Send Reset Link')
->assertSee('We have emailed your password reset link!');
Notification::assertSent(ResetPassword::class);
});
Quickly validate multiple pages have no JavaScript errors:
$pages = visit(['/', '/about', '/contact']);
$pages->assertNoJavascriptErrors()->assertNoConsoleLogs();
Capture and compare screenshots to detect visual changes.
Split tests across parallel processes for faster CI runs.
Pest 4 includes architecture testing (from Pest 3):
arch('controllers') ->expect('App\Http\Controllers') ->toExtendNothing() ->toHaveSuffix('Controller');
