Laravel - PHPUnit - run single test class or method

The following command runs the test on a single method: (e.g. we are testing the `testCreateUser()` method here)

vendor/bin/phpunit --filter testCreateUser UserControllerTest tests/feature/UserControllerTest.php
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter methodName ClassName path/to/file.php

Further, lets say you want to test a ClassName which exists into two location:

tests/unit/UserControllerTest.php // contains 3 tests
tests/feature/UserControllerTest.php // contains 2 tests

In this case, you simply run below command which will check for all the test on both location.

vendor/bin/phpunit --filter UserControllerTest

-----Output---------
Time: 2.56 seconds, Memory: 30.00MB

OK (5 tests, 22 assertions)

Please note, if you have phpunit available globally on your machine, you can simply run

phpunit --filter 

# instead of 
vendor/bin/phpunit --filter
