waitFor pauses execution until a given selector appears in the DOM, accommodating async rendering.

Question 4

Which Artisan command generates a dedicated model factory class in Laravel 8+?

Accepted Answer

make:factory

Answer

php artisan make:factory creates a standalone factory class in the database/factories directory.

Question 5

Accepted Answer

Lets exceptions propagate instead of being caught by Laravel's handler

withoutExceptionHandling tells Laravel not to catch exceptions, so test failures show the real stack trace.
