The Laravel\u00a0Form Request Tester\u00a0package is a collection of helpers that help test form requests. There are various ways to test form requests, either directly or through HTTP tests, that validate the behavior in form requests.<\/p>\n

This package has helpers to scaffold a fake route if you want to isolate tests around your form request. You start by importing the provided testing trait\u00a0TestsFormRequests<\/code>:<\/p>\n

use RenggaDev\\FormRequestTester\\TestsFormRequests;\r\n \r\nclass SomeTest extends TestCase\r\n{\r\n     use TestsFormRequests;\r\n \r\n     \/\/ ...\r\n}<\/pre>\n
The trait provides a\u00a0formRequest<\/code>\u00a0method you can use to set up the form request and perform assertions on the form:<\/p>\n
$form = $this->formRequest(UpdatePost::class)\r\n    ->withRoute('posts\/{post}')\r\n    ->put(['title' => 'New Title']);\r\n \r\n\/\/ Assertions\r\n$form\r\n    ->assertAuthorized()\r\n    ->assertValidationFailed()\r\n    ->assertValidationErrors(['content'])\r\n    ->assertValidationErrorsMissing(['title'])\r\n    ->assertValidationMessages(['Content field is required']);<\/pre>\n
There are some other assertion methods you can use to assert passing validation, authorization, and validation data:<\/p>\n
$form->assertValidationPassed();\r\n$form->assertNotAuthorized();\r\n$form->assertValidationData($data);\r\n$form->assertValidationDataMissing($data);<\/pre>\n
