Pest 2 - Summer of Spice
summary
Pest v2.9 ships this summer with concrete features: snapshot testing that stores HTML responses to dot/pest snapshots and flags regressions; describe blocks and beforeEach scoped hooks for organizing tests; an enhanced architectural plugin that detects DD calls, enforces namespaces, strict types, readonly and naming rules; a type coverage report showing percent typed and a minimum threshold for CI; and a drift plugin that auto-migrates PHPUnit suites (demo migrates 22 files and converts a 43-test Jetstream app) via composer update.
