Elasticsearch Sample Data Generator
To learn elasticsearch, you need lots of data to make queries as you want. I searched a few places to get a valid dump. But I couldn't find any dump that I can go with. Also what I found online, I am not familiar with the types of data. So, I thought to make a generator of my own. I have already used Artisan Console and fzaninotto/Faker, that's why I thought to make a generator that anyone can use with their terminal and generate the dump the way they wish.

Creating Your First Blog With TALL - Part Four
Model factories in Laravel allow you to generate dummy/fake data using the Faker PHP library. The Faker library allows generating random data by specifying various attributes. With factories you define fake data to be generated for each attribute/column of your model. This not only saves you time of manually inserting database records, but enables you to save thousands of records in your database within seconds.

Faker, other data types?
The original has been archived due to the amount of effort it took to update and has been forked into https://github.com/FakerPHP/Faker/, which is what Laravel now uses.

Any pro-tips for writing automated tests with Selenium PHP?
Personal experience: - don’t use Behat unless you really needed a “story telling”, it has a intermediate layer Gherkin that you’ll need to code. You can write “Given/When/Then” steps but you’ll also need to write “php code” that will interpret this step. - using real browser be prepared for instability - any interaction with JavaScript can broken/delay execution - be prepared that this tests are call functional they are the most expensive test, so start small unit then integration and only then functional. - use https://github.com/symfony/panther or https://codeception.com/ you’ll have phpunit alike interface to run them. - you’ll need to reset state of your database each time to provide “isolation” and stability

Advice for an older symfony 4.4 project
I would say to check out Codeception. Codeceptions has modules for Symfony and database generally. Long and short of it is that if you want you can run api tests that go into the controllers and rollback the database afterwards.

There are enough blog posts about Jest or Cypress already, so let me introduce Codecept. It comes in two flavors. There is Codeception for PHP, and there is CodeceptJS for JavaScript which we will be using here.

Testing PHP Applications
There are many tools you can use for this purpose, but one I particularly like is CodeCeption. What I like most about it is that it's a unified tool that can be used to perform several types of tests, acceptance being one of them.

Takeaways from a Testing and Refactoring Conference (apart from the T-Shirt)
This is a quote from this year's new Testify T-Shirt, my physical takeway from this event. While I don't agree that we should automate everything we can, I still chose this design as it shows Codeception code.
