Running single test

[tushargugnani]

Is there a way I can run a single test in Pest, same as by using phpunit --filter function? There is an only method but that only works when you only have a pest test in your test suite.

You can use --filter. Pest will understand it and defer to PHPUnit.

For example:

./vendor/bin/pest --filter AuthenticationTest

Results in

   PASS  Tests\Feature\Jetstream\AuthenticationTest
  ✓ login screen can be rendered
  ✓ users can authenticate using the login screen
  ✓ users cannot authenticate with invalid password

  Tests:  3 passed

This runs all test in a file, how do you run a specific test under AuthenticationTest ?

./vendor/bin/pest path/to/AuthenticationTest --filter="your test description"
