README
For large databases with more than 100 tables, it is very slow to drop all the tables and migrate again.
It is also still very slow to run the truncate
query against all the tables.
The idea of this package is to listen for query logs when the tests start and truncated only the table that are involved with the tests and ignore the rest.
Note that no table gets dropped or migrated. It only runs truncate table_name
query
You can install:
composer require imanghafoori/laravel-fast-refresh-database --dev
Usage
Add the trait to your test class. The package automatically starts watching insert queries before each test (via a PHPUnit @before
hook) and truncates only the tables that were touched after each test:
use Imanghafoori\DatabaseFresh\FastRefreshDatabase; class MyTest extends TestCase { use FastRefreshDatabase; public function test_user_can_run() { // ... your test code } }
Tip: Put the trait on your base Tests\\TestCase
to enable it for all tests.
Manual setup (legacy PHPUnit)
If your PHPUnit version does not support @before
, you can still invoke the setup helper in setUp()
:
protected function setUp(): void { parent::setUp(); // Manually start watching inserts for this test process $this->setupDatabaseAndStartWatchingTables(); }
