Improving Eloquent for real: test setup
I'm not going to pretend that my improvements will land in the official Laravel code any time soon, or ever. So I am going to use the illuminate/database repository. Because it is a sub module of the laravel/framework this has a few problems. The biggest problem is that there are no tests.

In this case, getting started might be rough unless you know Laravel well, because there's not even a readme there (in contrast to e.g. https://github.com/illuminate/database#illuminate-database which has a clear guide how to use it)
