Artisan Test Helpers
====================

[](#artisan-test-helpers)

This package adds 3 new `artisan` commands to your Laravel project to help make your TDD workflow a little easier:

`php artisan make:featuretest {name}`

`php artisan make:unittest {name}`

`php artisan make:factory {class}`

A Laravel service provider is also included. This provider will generate directories named `/stubs/` in your project's `/test/` and `database` directories, allowing you to customize the files that are generated by these commands.

Inspired by Adam Wathan's "Test Driven Laravel" course

Setup
-----

[](#setup)

To get started, add the package to your composer.json file, under `require-dev`:

```
"dennislindsey/artisan-test-helpers": "dev-master"

```

Once you've run a `composer update`, you need to register the Laravel service provider. You may add it to your `/config/app.php`:

```
'providers' => [
    ...
    DennisLindsey\ArtisanTestHelpers\Providers\ArtisanTestHelperServiceProvider::class,
],
```

...Or alternatively, I suggest adding the following code to your `app/Providers/AppServiceProvider.php` file, within the `register()` method:

```
public function register()
{
    if ($this->app->environment() !== 'production') {
        $this->app->register(\DennisLindsey\ArtisanTestHelpers\Providers\ArtisanTestHelperServiceProvider::class);
    }
    // ...
}
```

Make sure to publish the `stubs` directories

```
$ php artisan vendor:publish --provider="DennisLindsey\ArtisanTestHelpers\Providers\ArtisanTestHelperServiceProvider"
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

```
$ php artisan make:featuretest NameOfFeature
```

This will generate a file in your project's `/tests/feature/` directory called `NameOfFeatureTest.php`

```
