Database Testing

Database testing in JCC Express MVC is done through assertion helpers exposed by TestCase (powered by InteractsWithDatabase).

Available assertions

From your test instance:

• assertDatabaseHas(table, data)
• assertDatabaseMissing(table, data)
• assertDatabaseCount(table, count)
• assertModelExists(model)
• assertModelMissing(model)

Example usage

How model assertions work

• assertModelExists(model) checks model table + primary key value
• assertModelMissing(model) checks that matching primary key is not present

These are useful after create/delete/restore operations.

Notes

• assertions use DB.table(...) queries under the hood
• make sure your test database is configured correctly before running tests
• if tests share state, isolate with reliable setup/cleanup patterns in hooks
