: Generate a service provider file and attach it to the project.test
: Generate a test file.fixture

For every test you will be able to fast generate new test cases with the fixtures. You will be also able to mock unit tests quickly using Mockery and Brain Monkey. Finally, the subscriber architecture will make it easier for you to create integration tests for your code.
