    |
    | The application boots.
    |
    */

        \Tobento\App\Boot\ErrorHandling::class,

        // add more boots.
        AnyBoot::class,
    ],

];
```

**On the app.php file**

```

```

```

$app->boot(\Tobento\App\Boot\App::class);

// Add more boots here
$app->boot(AnyBoot::class);
```

[](#app-testing)

**Unit Tests**

Unit tests are designed to test small, isolated portions of code, often focusing on a single method.

See demo test file: `tests/Unit/DemoTest.php`

**Feature Tests**

Feature tests test the behavior of a complete application. They may make HTTP requests and test that the response is as expected.
