Larvel Dusk tests about inertia-laravel

[sinnbeck]

Haven't tested yet, but you might be able to listen for nprogress to disappear

$browser->waitUntilMissing('#nprogress');

Started implementing dusk in my current project and I am also running into issues. I am using a custom .env.dusk.local file with the proper settings. It works for the initial page load, but when geting things from usePage(), it seems that dusk is loading the original .env file instead of the new one. I can simply dump my database.default value to the screen (In react), and check the "failed" screenshot

I am unsure if this is a problem with dusk or inertia

Edit: Silly me. I had forgotten that artisan serve caches my .env files! :/ Changed to homestead and it works 👍

Laravel Dusk has a feature to wait until an element is visible by passing a query selector. For example:

$browser->waitFor('.button');

You can view the documentation here for more examples - https://laravel.com/docs/5.8/dusk#waiting-for-elements

hi @georgehanson. Thanks for your reply!
Yes I was already aware of that. I can try to find an element for each test case to wait for, but I'm actually curious if there is a generic element to wait for. Like the same element in each test. This would make everything much easier.

Since I'm sure I'm not the only one who uses Dusk, I interested to find out how other Inertia users handle this.

Thanks @sinnbeck !
I've tried it and it works!

Thanks for the edit @sinnbeck .
Good to hear you've figured it out.

Looks like this issue's been solved! 👍

Another solution (I think?) could be to wait for first element inside the inertia-rendered element. Since Vue replaces the whole node tree that it gets mounted on (#app, by default in Inertia), it's presence would indicate that your app is ready.

In either case, I'll close this issue for now, but if you feel like it still wasn't answered properly, feel free to re-open the issue at any point by continuing the conversation.

Thanks!

I want to recommend some package here which helps a lot testing Inertia.js with Laravel Dusk

We wrote almost same code, but a bit simpler. Great package. Confirm, that the idea behind that macro works.
