Interesting testing utilities to add

[eduarguz]

What kind of testing utils would you like to have in this package?

I have some utilities from courses, screencasts and some made by my own. Would they fit in a package like this?, later should be, how would they be added? given they are macros

---

1. asserting a collection has an item

Collection::macro('assertContains', function ($value) {
    PHPUnit::assertTrue($this->contains($value), "Failed asserting that the collection contains the specified value.");
});

$collection->assertContains($model)

---

2. assert a collection has no item

Collection::macro('assertNotContains', function ($value) {
    PHPUnit::assertFalse($this->contains($value), "Failed asserting that the collection does not contain the specified value.");
});

$collection->assertNotContains($model)

---

3. Get data from a returned view

TestResponse::macro('getData', function ($key) {
    return $this->original->getData()[$key];
});

$response->getData('article')

---

4. Assert response status is not Equal to.

TestResponse::macro('assertStatusNotEquals', function ($status) {
    $actual = $this->getStatusCode();

    PHPUnit::assertTrue(
        $actual != $status,
        "Expected status code different from {$status} but received {$actual}."
    );

    return $this;
});

$response->assertStatusNotEquals(200)

---

5. Assert response location is not

TestResponse::macro('assertLocationDifferent', function ($uri) {
    PHPUnit::assertNotEquals(
        app('url')->to($uri),
        app('url')->to($this->headers->get('Location'))
    );

    return $this;
});

$response->assertRedirect()->assertLocationDifferent('/home')

Hi @eduarguzher, I really like these! To answer your question about where they'd fit in this package, I think they would be nice as class-based macros with their own service provider(s). That way, people might use them like this:

public function setUp()
{
    parent::setUp();

    $this->app->register(CollectionTestMacros::class);
}

/** @test */
public function it_tests_things_in_a_collection()
{
    collect()->customMacroAssertion();
}

This mixin behaviour can be seen here. Could you make a PR to add these in? 😄

cool!
Of course, I will work on it this week...

Actually, gonna keep this open in case anyone wants to pick up the TestResponse ideas. 👍
