Description:

Incompatibility between assertSoftDeleted with softDelete when you define a custom name column.

Steps To Reproduce:

• Create a migration with softDeletes method and a different column name. Example: $table->softDeletes('deleted_date');.
• Create a model with SoftDeletes trait.
• Define the soft delete column: const DELETED_AT = 'deleted_date';.
• Create a test that use assertSoftDeleted method and check model.

Unfortunately yes, the deleted_at column is currently hardcoded in the PHPUnit constraint class https://github.com/laravel/framework/blob/v6.0.4/src/Illuminate/Foundation/Testing/Constraints/SoftDeletedInDatabase.php#L54

Hmm, this indeed seems unwanted.
