LaravelMailTester
=================

[](#laravelmailtester)

An extension to Laravel's TestCase which allows you to run unit tests on emails.

Installation
============

[](#installation)

```
composer require tijmen-wierenga/laravel-mail-tester
```

Next, add the trait to the `TestCase` class located at `tests/TestCase`:

```
use TijmenWierenga\LaravelMailTester\TestsEmail;

class TestCase extends Laravel\Lumen\Testing\TestCase
{

    use TestsEmail;

    ...

}
```

How it works
============

[](#how-it-works)

LaravelMailTester adds an event listener as a plugin when in a testing environment. It tracks when an email is sent, and stores all data in the test case. You can then perform assertions against it.

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

```
class AuthenticationTest extends TestCase
{
  /**
  * @test
  */
  public function it_sends_an_email() {
    // Send an email
    Mail::raw('Wow, awesome email testing!', function($mail) {
      $mail->to('tijmen@floown.com');
      $mail->from('no-reply@floown.com');
      $mail->subject('Read this awesome email');
    }

    $this->assertEmailWasSent()
      ->assertEmailWasSentTo('tijmen@floown.com')
      ->assertEmailWasSentFrom('no-reply@floown.com')
      ->assertEmailBodyContains('awesome email testing')
  }
}
```

More assertions to come.
