Disable output during tests

[eleftrik]

Maybe it's a dumb question, but I didn't find any solutions.

Is it possible to disable termwind output when tests are running? Let's say there is a simple command which outputs text with $this->info() and render():

    public function handle(): int
    {
        $this->info("Green text");
        render('<div class="text-red-500">Red text</div>');

        return self::SUCCESS;
    }

and a simple test (Pest):

<?php

use App\Console\Commands\TestCommand;

use function Pest\Laravel\artisan;

it('returns a successful response', function () {
    artisan(TestCommand::class)
        ->assertOk();
});

When tests are running, "Green text" will not show, while "Red text" will. I think both should not be rendered while tests are running.

What's the best way to make render() behave like standard output functions?

Thank you

You can use renderUsing(new BufferedOutput).

Ok, now I've setup my Pest test like this:

<?php

use Symfony\Component\Console\Output\BufferedOutput;

use function Pest\Laravel\artisan;
use function Termwind\renderUsing;

beforeEach(fn() => renderUsing(new BufferedOutput()));

...and the output while tests are running is gone.

Thank you @xiCO2k!

If you really don't need the output, there's also Symfony\Component\Console\Output\NullOutput.
