How To Test Artisan Commands in Laravel 5

问题:

I build an Artisan Command to receive data from a socket, and I want to write a unit-testing for this command but I'm not sure how to write such a test.

Anyone an idea how to write it?

回答1:

It is much easier now:

<?php

class YourCommandTest extends TestCase
{

    public function testExample()
    {
        $this->artisan('command', ['param' => 'value']);
    }

}

Example of test

<?php

class YourCommandTest extends TestCase
{
    public function testExample()
    {
        Artisan::call('your_command', [
            'command_parameter_1' => 'value1',
            'command_parameter_2' => 'value2',
        ]);

        // If you need result of console output
        $resultAsText = Artisan::output();

        $this->assertTrue(true);
    }

}
