Quick Tip

Use assertModelMissing instead assertDatabaseMissing

While testing model deletion, use assertModelMissing instead assertDatabaseMissing.

/** @test */
public function allowed_user_can_delete_task()
{
$task = Task::factory()->for($this->project)->create();
 
$this->deleteJson($task->path())
->assertNoContent();
 
// Instead of assertDatabaseMissing to check if the model missing from the database
$this->assertDatabaseMissing('tasks', ['id' => $task->id]);
 
// use directly assertModelMissing
$this->assertModelMissing($task);
}
