Undefined array key "factory" with Laravel 11

[mzur]

Describe the bug I installed a fresh setup of Laravel 11 (PHP 8.2) with composer create-project laravel/laravel example-app. Then I downgraded PHPUnit (because of #384) with composer require --dev -W phpunit/phpunit:^10 and installed Psalm with composer require --dev -W psalm/plugin-laravel. Next I run steps 2-4 of the quickstart instructions.

I get the following error:

Target PHP version: 8.2 (inferred from composer.json).

[JeftavanderHorst]

This appears to have been caused by the changed generics in https://github.com/laravel/framework/pull/52005. Applying the changes described there solved the issue for us.
