/home/farid/Code/Web/jala-web/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Testing/TestResponse.php:613

/home/farid/Code/Web/jala-web/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Testing/TestResponse.php:538
/home/farid/Code/Web/jala-web/tests/Feature/Farm/StockControllerTest.php:31

FAILURES!
Tests: 113, Assertions: 161, Failures: 1.

Steps To Reproduce:

On tests/Feature/ExampleTest.php edit to became

    public function testBasicTest()
    {
        $response = $this->get(route('home', [], false));
        dump($response->exception->getMessage());

        $response->assertStatus(200);
    }

Then run

vendor/bin/phpunit tests/Feature/ExampleTest.php

I know this should be failed of unauthenticated, but it failed on different case. This is happen when I use RefreshDatabase Trait on TestCase Class.

How is exactly best practice to migrate and seed database before test? not every test.

After more investigations, the problem is happens because I override refreshTestDatabase() to run command migrate:fresh --seed, if I remove the --seed, it works. Is this intended?

    protected function refreshTestDatabase()
    {
        if (! RefreshDatabaseState::$migrated) {
            $this->artisan('migrate:fresh', [ '--seed' => true ]);

            $this->app[Kernel::class]->setArtisan(null);

            RefreshDatabaseState::$migrated = true;
        }

        $this->beginDatabaseTransaction();
    }

Aaand the problem is happen because of I install voyager package. and there were some strange line of code on seeder on MenuItemsTableSeeder.php#L17. If I comment this line, no issue happens

Then I'm going to close this.
