Pruebas en Laravel con TDD

Desarrollo guiado por pruebas para aplicaciones Laravel usando PHPUnit, Pest, Laravel Factories y helpers de testing.

Cuándo Activar

• Al escribir nuevas aplicaciones o funcionalidades en Laravel
• Al implementar endpoints de API con autenticación Sanctum o Passport
• Al probar modelos Eloquent, relaciones, scopes y accesores
• Al configurar la infraestructura de pruebas para proyectos Laravel
• Al escribir pruebas de funcionalidad para controladores HTTP y solicitudes de formulario
• Al simular servicios externos (colas, correo, notificaciones, HTTP)

Flujo de Trabajo TDD para Laravel

Ciclo Rojo-Verde-Refactorizar

// Paso 1: ROJO — Escribe una prueba que falle
public function test_un_producto_puede_ser_creado(): void
{
    $product = Product::factory()->create(['name' => 'Producto de Prueba']);
    $this->assertDatabaseHas('products', ['name' => 'Producto de Prueba']);
}

// Paso 2: VERDE — Escribe la migración, el modelo y la fábrica
// Paso 3: REFACTORIZAR — Mejora mientras las pruebas sigan en verde

Configuración

Configuración de PHPUnit

        <env name="QUEUE_CONNECTION" value="sync"/>
        <env name="SESSION_DRIVER" value="array"/>
    </php>
</phpunit>

Configuración Base de TestCase

namespace Tests;

use Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\TestCase as BaseTestCase;

abstract class TestCase extends BaseTestCase
{
    protected function setUp(): void
    {
        parent::setUp();
        // Usa $this->withoutExceptionHandling() solo en pruebas que
        // prueben excepciones no HTTP; suprime assertStatus() etc.
    }

    // Helper: Autenticar y devolver usuario
    protected function actingAsUser(): mixed
    {
        $user = \App\Models\User::factory()->create();
        $this->actingAs($user);
        return $user;
    }

    protected function actingAsAdmin(): mixed
    {
        $admin = \App\Models\User::factory()->admin()->create();
        $this->actingAs($admin);
        return $admin;
    }
}

Fábricas de Modelos

// database/factories/UserFactory.php
class UserFactory extends Factory
{
    protected static ?string $password = null;

    public function definition(): array
    {
        return [
            'name' => fake()->name(),
            'email' => fake()->unique()->safeEmail(),
            'email_verified_at' => now(),
            'password' => static::$password ??= Hash::make('password'),
            'remember_token' => Str::random(10),
            'role' => 'user',
        ];
    }

    public function admin(): static
    {
        return $this->state(fn (array $attributes) => ['role' => 'admin']);
    }

    public function unverified(): static
    {
        return $this->state(fn (array $attributes) => ['email_verified_at' => null]);
    }
}

// database/factories/ProductFactory.php
class ProductFactory extends Factory
{
    public function definition(): array
    {
        return [
            'name' => fake()->unique()->words(3, true),
            'slug' => fn (array $attrs) => Str::slug($attrs['name']),
            'description' => fake()->paragraph(),
            'price' => fake()->numberBetween(100, 100000),
            'stock' => fake()->numberBetween(0, 100),
            'is_active' => true,
            'user_id' => UserFactory::new(),
        ];
    }

    public function outOfStock(): static
    {
        return $this->state(fn (array $attributes) => ['stock' => 0]);
    }
}

Uso de Fábricas

$user = User::factory()->create();
$admin = User::factory()->admin()->create();
$product = Product::factory()->create(['user_id' => $user->id]);
$products = Product::factory()->count(10)->create();
$draft = Product::factory()->make(); // No persistido

// Con relaciones
$user = User::factory()->has(Product::factory()->count(3))->create();

// Secuencias
User::factory()->count(3)->sequence(
    ['role' => 'admin'], ['role' => 'editor'], ['role' => 'user'],
)->create();
