Test Your Laravel Eloquent Basic Skills

This repository is a test for you: perform a set of tasks listed below, and fix the PHPUnit tests, which are currently intentionally failing.

To test if all the functions work correctly, there are PHPUnit tests in tests/Feature/EloquentTest.php file.

In the very beginning, if you run php artisan test, or vendor/bin/phpunit, all tests fail. Your task is to make those tests pass.

How to Submit Your Solution

If you want to submit your solution, you should make a Pull Request to the main branch. It will automatically run the tests via GitHub Actions and will show you/me if the test pass.

If you don't know how to make a Pull Request, here's my video with instructions.

This task is mostly self-served, so I'm not planning review or merge the Pull Requests. This test is for yourselves to assess your skills, the automated tests will be your answer if you passed the test :)

Questions / Problems?

If you're struggling with some tasks, or you have suggestions how to improve the task, create a GitHub Issue.

Good luck!

Task 1. Model with Different Table Name.

In app/Models/Morningnews.php file, change it so that the model would work with "morning_news" table, as it is created in the migrations.

Test method test_create_model_incorrect_table().

Task 2. Eloquent Get Data.

In app/Http/Controllers/UserController.php file method index(), write Eloquent query to get 3 newest users with verified emails, ordered from newest to oldest. Transform this SQL query into Eloquent:

select * from users where email_verified_at is not null order by created_at desc limit 3

Test method test_users_get().
