Explore: PHPUnit
All Laracasts series are categorized into various topics. This should provide you with an alternate way to decide what to learn next, whether it be a particular framework, language, or tool.
PHP Testing Jargon
There's no two ways about it: terminology in the testing world is incredibly overwhelming. Mocks, stubs, and dummies oh my! Let's see if we can cut through the noise. Come along as, bit by bit, we break all of these confusing concepts down into something you can easily understand and implement within your own projects.
Browser Testing With Laravel Dusk
Laravel Dusk provides an expressive testing API and browser automation for your apps. In terms of testing, it provides the closest thing to an actual user interacting with your application in a browser. These tests are typically referred to as end to end tests or browser tests. In this series, we’ll prepare a series of Dusk tests for a standard blog application.
Code Katas with PHPUnit
If martial artists use kata as a method for exercise and practice, what might be the equivalent for coders like us? Coding katas are short, repeatable programming challenges which are meant to exercise everything from your focus, to your workflow. In this series, one kata per episode, we'll work through a wide variety of challenges to build up your TDD process.
Build a Stock Tracker App
In this series, we'll build a command line application to track the availability of in-demand products across any number of retailers. Perhaps you want to be notified the moment a Nintendo Switch becomes available for purchase? Let's do it!
Build A Laravel App With TDD
It's time to take the techniques we learned in Laravel From Scratch, and put them to good use building your first real-world application. Together, we'll leverage TDD to create Birdboard: a minimal Basecamp-like project management app. This series will give us a wide range of opportunities to pull up our sleeves and test our Laravel chops. As always, we start from scratch: laravel new birdboard.
Testing Laravel
Given the number of testing tools and resources available to PHP developers, it's no wonder why so many developers feel overwhelmed. In this series, we'll learn the ins and outs of PHPUnit testing, while working within your familiar Laravel application structure.
Let's Build A Forum with Laravel and TDD
A forum is a deceptively complex thing. Sure, it's made up of threads and replies, but what else might exist as part of a forum? What about profiles, or thread subscriptions, or filtering, or real-time notifications? As it turns out, a forum is the perfect project to stretch your programming muscles. In this series, we'll work together to build one with tests from A to Z.
Intuitive Integration Testing
The reality is that, sometimes, you don't require a big testing framework to help orchestrate conversations with the business, design your objects, and more. Sometimes, you just want to ensure that the dang thing works like you expect, with as little configuration as possible! In these situations, the Laracasts Integrated package is exactly what you need.
