Github Actions + Dusk

Can you start by posting the errors from Github Actions?

I suggest that you then have a look at your environment variables and perhaps dump these during debugging to ensure that you are using the correct ones during testing.

You are defining the DB_CONNECTION=sqlite and DB_DATABASE=:memory: in your phpunit.xml file: https://github.com/brokerbridge/github-actions/blob/master/phpunit.xml#L30 but you also create a MySQL database with a root user during setup. Note that you have not set a DB_PASSWORD in .env.example (which is copied to .env during setup) nor in .env.testing.

Note that you can pass certain variables directly to dusk using like done for phpunit here

Hey @andersb,

You can see the error I'm getting below, it's a standard PHPUnit/Dusk error so I believe it's just an issue with the configuration.

F                                                                   1 / 1 (100%)

Time: 14.03 seconds, Memory: 18.00 MB

There was 1 failure:

1) Tests\Browser\ExampleTest::testBasicExample
Did not see expected text [Laravel] within element [body].
Failed asserting that false is true.

The issue I have though is that my environment variables are the defaults. Eg. sqlite for db_connection and :memory for db_database. Should the Laravel provided Action not work with the defaults for Laravel?

Perhaps I need to run the Dusk tests via sqlite, to match the PHPUnit config that is default by Laravel?

@brainbox I just confirmed the issue, and maybe this would be a good opportunity to add this to the Laravel documentation, but the problem is simply that Github uses 127.0.0.1:8000 as host, so it is important that your .env file has set APP_URL=http://127.0.0.1:8000.

You can force this by setting the variable in your workflow like so:

...
- name: Run Dusk Tests
  run: php artisan dusk
  env:
    APP_URL="http://127.0.0.1:8000"

Does this solve your issue?

Hey @andersb,

Thank you, I saw the PR got merged this morning.

This is the code that worked for me, got here cause of you so thanks so much.

- name: Run Dusk Tests
        env:
          APP_URL: "http://127.0.0.1:8000"
        run: php artisan dusk

Nice to hear that it worked for you @brainbox , and yes now the documentation includes this. Happy to help. Please mark this as solved.

I have the same configuration, but github actions throws me the exception.

SQLSTATE[HY000] [1045] Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) (SQL: SHOW FULL TABLES WHERE table_type = 'BASE TABLE')

When I run this it fails:

php artisan serve —host=api.example.test
