Hello,
I'm just starting out with implementing unit tests in Laravel using Pest. I have an application running with FilamentPHP, and I have conducted a few tests that operate with a GitHub action.
It happens that some tests fail, but not consistently. I have a problem retrieving the object that has just been created by the factory... For exemple :
php No query results for model [App\Models\Order] 1 //Not always ID 1
From time to time a test fails with this error, the next time, when I run the tests again, the test that had an error works but the next one fails. In short, I'm having trouble understanding why...
A configuration issue? A problem with the test DB? My factories?
I tried in two ways, either directly with the factory or by retrieving the Model (see examples below).
it('can validate an order from IN_ORDER status', function () {
$order = Order::factory()->create(['status' => Status::IN_ORDER]);
// If I dd() the $order, I have a result
livewire(ViewOrder::class, ['record' => $order->getRouteKey()])
->call('validateOrder')
->assertHasNoActionErrors();
$order->refresh();
expect($order->status)->toBe(Status::VALIDATED);
$activity = Activity::where('subject_id', $order->id)
->where('event', 'validate')
->latest()
->first();
expect($activity)->not->toBeNull();
});
And another one :
it('builds the correct title with the reference', function () {
Order::factory()->create(['reference' => '123456']);
$order = Order::latest()->first();
$component = livewire(
ViewOrder::class,
['record' => $order->getRouteKey()]
); // Here it tells me that getRouteKey() is null.
$translationKey = $component->instance()->getTitle();
$expectedTitle = __($translationKey) . ' #' . $order->reference;
expect($expectedTitle)->toContain('#123456');
});
Here my TestCase.php :
<?php
namespace Tests;
use Database\Seeders\production\ShieldSeeder;
use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\TestCase as BaseTestCase;
abstract class TestCase extends BaseTestCase
{
protected function setUp(): void
{
parent::setUp();
$this->seed(ShieldSeeder::class);
}
}
And my phpunit.xml :
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<phpunit xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
xsi:noNamespaceSchemaLocation="vendor/phpunit/phpunit/phpunit.xsd"

Do you have any idea where the problem might be coming from?
Thank you 😅
