You are about to start your journey in the wonderful world of testing. We hope you're as excited about this as we are.
If you're completely new to testing, you've arrived at the right place. After just a few lessons, you will be able to automatically test the most important pieces of your application.
Even if you already have some experience with testing, this course will probably sharpen your skills.
Which test runner should you use?
In this course, you will use PHPUnit as the tool to run tests. It is the default testrunner for Laravel. The large majority of all Laravel projects have a test suite written for PHPUnit.
Recently, Pest, an alternative testrunner has been picking up speed. Though we can't look into the future, we can imagine this tool becoming the new default in a future version of Laravel. If you would prefer learning how to test using Pest, check out the Pest flavour of this course. Though the syntax is a bit different, the ideas behind the tests are much the same.
