php artisan generate:model-factory
This package will generate factories from your existing models so you can get started with testing your Laravel application more quickly.
Schema::create('users', function (Blueprint $table) {
$table->increments('id');
$table->string('name');
$table->string('username');
$table->string('email')->unique();
$table->string('password', 60);
$table->integer('company_id');
$table->rememberToken();
$table->timestamps();
});
class User extends Model {
public function company()
{
return $this->belongsTo(Company::class);
}
}$factory->define(App\User::class, function (Faker\Generator $faker) {
return [
'name' => $faker->name,
'username' => $faker->userName,
'email' => $faker->safeEmail,
'password' => bcrypt($faker->password),
'company_id' => factory(App\Company::class),
'remember_token' => Str::random(10),
];
});Require this package with composer using the following command:
composer require --dev mpociot/laravel-test-factory-helperTo generate multiple factories at once, run the artisan command:
php artisan generate:model-factory
This command will find all models within your application and create test factories. By default, this will not overwrite any existing model factories. You can force overwriting existing model factories by using the --force option.
To generate a factory for specific model or models, run the artisan command:
php artisan generate:model-factory User Team
By default, this command will search under the app folder for models. If your models are within a different folder, for example app/Models, you can specify this using --dir option. In this case, run the artisan command:
php artisan generate:model-factory --dir app/Models -- User Team
