How to Test Controller with FormRequest
As the Title says I'm trying to look for a way to test a method on controller as simple as that
public function (MyCustomRequest $request) { $this->postRepository->create($request->all()); }
I'v looked every where but I've not found any way .

If you use Laravel's built in integration testing, you can simply submit the form that posts to that controller method. That way you can check any redirects / success messages, too.
If you only want to test the repository method itself, you can write tests for the repository and just assert values exist in your persistence layer.

for example I'm trying to test that method on the controller
public function store(MyCustomRequest $request) { $this->postRepository->create($request->all()); }
I want to test it without passing the form, Just Mocking the Request

In that case, wouldn't you just want to test the repository method itself? Pass an array of values to the create() method and make your assertions against that.

@deringer actually thats too, what I have to assert, is that if I send a CustomRequest it passes ...
