The document discusses the evolution of testing in the Laravel framework over time. It notes that earlier versions of Laravel (<=5.3) organized tests into ExampleTest.php files and a TestCase file. Starting in version 5.4, Laravel introduced feature and unit test organization into directories and the ability to generate tests from artisan commands. The document also references documentation on Laravel's testing and Dusk browser automation libraries and a quote about not needing to take a fully test-first approach.

DUSK

Laravel Dusk provides an expressive, easy-to-use browser
automation and testing API. By default, Dusk does not require
you to install JDK or Selenium on your machine.
Instead, Dusk uses a standalone ChromeDriver
installation. However, you are free to utilize any other
Selenium compatible driver you wish.

every controller, model, and
view (my ratio is typically 20%
test-first, 80% test-after).
