Living your Pest file
summary
Claims that Pest is more than PHPUnit sugar and shows concrete demos: a ParrotCon signup app with email-must-contain-"parrot" validation and a parrot-captcha expecting 10 birds, one-liner higher-order tests that replace closures, shared and combined data sets that explode into Cartesian products (examples go from 3 tests to 18 then 38), the expectation API and higher-order expectations for concise model assertions, a fake form-request generator in progress, and all examples run via Laravel php artisan test and visibly pass.
