php artisan test is only running latest created test and ignoring other ones.

[dnsnx]

Hi,

this is the first time, I use this discussion here, so please be patient.
I'm having an issue with Laravel / PHPUnit Testing.
I'm using the latest Laravel version (8.82.0) and PHPUnit with version 9.5.13 on PHP 7.4.

I have created 2 units tests in my application, but only one test is being executed when I run php artisan test, when I use Laravel's TestCase class.

Here are my two tests:

WoodWoodConnectionTest:

<?php
namespace Tests\Unit;

//use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;
use Tests\TestCase;

class WoodWoodConnectionTest extends TestCase {
    public function test_wood_wood_calculation() {
        //Arrange
        $verificationDataOfHCW = new \App\Models\Nachweis\Daten\HCW();
        $verificationDataOfHCW->connection_type = \Config::get('constants.verbindungstyp.holzholz');
        ...
        $calculationRepository = \App::make('\App\Repositories\Nachweis\HCWRepositoryImpl');

        //Act
        $calculationRepository->berechnen($verificationDataOfHCW);

        //Assert
        $this->assertEquals(365, $verificationDataOfHCW->component_one_p_k);
        $this->assertEquals(28.80, $verificationDataOfHCW->f_v_0_rk);
        ...
    }
}

Here are my two tests:

WoodConcreteConnectionTest:

<?php
namespace Tests\Unit;

//use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;
use Tests\TestCase;

class WoodConcreteConnectionTest extends TestCase
{
    /**
     * A basic unit test example.
     *
     * @return void
     */
    public function test_wood_concrete_calculation()
    {
        //Arrange
        $verificationDataOfHCW = new \App\Models\Nachweis\Daten\HCW();
        $calculationRepository = \App::make('\App\Repositories\Nachweis\HCWRepositoryImpl');
        
        //Act
        //$calculationRepository->berechnen($verificationDataOfHCW);

        //Assert
        $this->assertTrue(true);
    }
}

When I run php artisan test it tells me that the test WoodConcreteConnectionTest is being successful, but the other test is not running.
If I create a new test with php artisan make:test TestTest, the test will be executed too (that means 2 tests are running successful), but when I change

use PHPUnit\Framework\TestCase;

to

use Tests\TestCase;

only the TestTest is being executed.
I already put the tests directly in the Unit folder without subfolders etc.
I checked the phpunit.xml, TestCase class and CreatesApplication trait (copied it from the Laravel project source).

I described the issue on StackOverflow, too (https://stackoverflow.com/questions/70918132/laravel-testing-only-one-test-is-being-executed-when-running-command-php-arti).

I'm not sure if it is an issue of Laravel or PHPUnit, but when I'm using the PHPUnit's TestCase class more than one test is being executed. So I assume it is more a Laravel issue.
Are there any other locations in a Laravel project which controls or have influence on testing?
Any help appreciated! Many thanks in advance!

Did you have any "dump" function running inside your code? If so please remove the dump function inside your code. I too faced similar issue that dump function stops the tests running without a response.

I'm not 100% sure what do you mean with "dump" function? The issue is, when I ran each test individually, all tests are successful.
So I don't think, that the tests run into a failure.

I already tried this, too. Same result. No change.

[gguney]

I do not have any other idea, sorry. If I face similar issue I'll let you know

[dnsnx]

Yeah, but many thanks to you for your help!

Can you check your copy of use Tests\TestCase; ?

[dnsnx]

I've copied the files from the repo.

TestCase.php:

<?php
namespace Tests;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\TestCase as BaseTestCase;

abstract class TestCase extends BaseTestCase
{
    use CreatesApplication;
}

CreatesApplication.php:

<?php
namespace Tests;
use Illuminate\Contracts\Console\Kernel;

trait CreatesApplication
{
    /**
     * Creates the application.
     *
     * @return \Illuminate\Foundation\Application
     */
    public function createApplication()
    {
        $app = require __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/app.php';

        $app->make(Kernel::class)->bootstrap();

        return $app;
    }
}
