What is Github Workflow
GitHub Workflow is a powerful tool that allows developers to automate various tasks and processes related to software development, such as building, testing, and deploying applications.
What is Laravel Pint
Laravel Pint is an opinionated PHP code style fixer for minimalists. Pint is built on top of PHP-CS-Fixer and makes it simple to ensure that your code style stays clean and consistent.
What is PHP PEST
PHP Pest is a testing framework for PHP applications. It is inspired by Jest, a popular testing framework for JavaScript. Pest provides a clean and expressive syntax for writing tests and comes with a wide range of features to simplify the testing process.
We can say PHP Pest is a total alternative for PHPUnit. Pest is more simple and has more features than PHPUnit. Laravel has lots of support for this library.
