- use the available assertions to test for request

Taking into consderation:
- title & content are required field,
- Content field is required is a custom error message used for content field
$this->route
method is used in authorize methodRoute::put('posts/{post}', 'PostsController@update')
is the route used to update a post
you can now use intuitive methods to build form request
Form Requests related methods and how to work with them
$this->route('parameter')
:
This method basically retreive the value of a routing rule parameter.
For example if you have a routing rule put posts/{post}
and browsed to posts/1
then the value of $this->route('post')
is 1.
for this to work with the package you need to
-
Register the routing rule in your application routing files
web.php
orapi.php
- set the route using FormRequestTester
withRoute
method
this why when you use the $this->route('post')
in your form request, the result will be 1.
The package also supports substitube binding. All you need to be is to ؤreate an explicit binding and will do the work for you.
when you do the reigster, the value of $this->route('post')
will be a Post model rather than the id.
Alternatively
if you don't want to register a route just for the sake of resolving a route parameter then you can use FormRequestTester addRouteParameter($name, $value)
.
according to the example above, with the new method addRouteParameter
, $this->route('post')
will be resolved to 1
$this->user()
:
This method will reteive the current authenticated user.
use laravel testing method actingAs
to set a user as the current authenticated user
