Getting an instance of the Laravel IOC container for testing. ONLY IF THE FUNCTIONAL TEST IS INSIDE A LARAVEL PACKAGE YOU CAN DO THE FOLLOWING: EXTEND THIS FROM YOUR PARENT TEST CLASS.
<?php namespace Vinelab\Youtube\Tests;
class TestCase extends \PHPUnit_Framework_TestCase {
use ApplicationTrait;
public function setUp()
{
if ( ! $this->app)
{
$this->refreshApplication();
}
}
}
