🌶️ #Laravel Tip: When testing with #PHPUnit, include phpunit.xml and phpunit.xml.dist files. PHPUnit first tries to use phpunit.xml; if that file doesn't exist, it tries to use phpunit.xml.dist instead.

PHPUnit only uses one of these files, never both.

1️⃣ Include phpunit.xml.dist file in your Git repo
2️⃣ Add phpunit.xml file to your .gitignore file

PHPUnit will use phpunit.xml.dist, but if you want to run a modified set of the tests, they can copy your phpunit.xml.dist file into phpunit.xml and then modify phpunit.xml.
