Laravel Testing not pickup new test cases.

Hi Guys,

I am pretty new to Laravel testing. I am going to use Laravel testing for both TDD and BDD. I just found a very strange issue that Laravel testing not picking up new test cases. I tried both just run "phpunit" or command "vendor/bin/phpunit"

Please see my source code below:

use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\WithoutMiddleware; use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\DatabaseMigrations; use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\DatabaseTransactions;

use App\Repositories\UserRepository;

class UserAddTDD extends TestCase { // Use Database transactions will ensure no database touched. use DatabaseTransactions;

protected $faker;
protected $userRepository;

public function __construct() {
    $this->userRepository = new UserRepository();
    $this->faker = Faker\Factory::create();
}


/**
 * A basic test example.
 *
 * @return void
 */
public function testUserAdd()
{
    $data = array(
        'first_name' => $this->faker->firstName,
        'last_name' => $this->faker->lastName,
        'email' => $this->faker->email,
        'password' => str_random(10),
        'calendar_color' => $this->faker->hexcolor,
        'email_signature' => '<div>als,dfjaslkdf</div>',
        'phone' => $this->faker->phoneNumber,
        'created_by' => $this->faker->randomDigitNotNull,
        'updated_by' => $this->faker->randomDigitNotNull,
    );
    $user = $this->userRepository->create($data);

    $this->assertTrue(isset($user->id));
}

}

If I copy paste to ExampleTest.php and change the class name to ExampleTest.php, it got picked up. Otherwise, this will never be executed.

Anyone can help me with this?

We can see only 1 test case got pickup which is ExampleTest.php

Many Thanks,

Your class name needs to end in 'Test'. Try 'UserAddTDDTest'.
