🔥 #Laravel Tip: When accessing APIs, consider using a unique user agent. That way, if there's a problem, the owner of the API can see who you are and get in touch. It doesn’t guarantee they will, but you might be lucky and avoid being blocked. https://t.co/cJsLiQSojH

✨ Composer comes with an `InstalledVersions` class that lets you check dependencies at runtime. #php #laravel https://t.co/U6THJxjAdA

🔥 Just figured out how to get round that annoying memory issue when running Composer commands… #composer #laravel #php https://t.co/OXrlL8dEvj https://t.co/y90Ro2lRPi

Tip: Begin every test with a series of comments that describe your given/when/then. Then, one by one, convert those comments to actual code. Unless it's very basic, I begin *every* test in this way to gather my thoughts. https://t.co/67FtU9DmwH

Just another reminder that you can run phpunit with the --testdox flag to get a beautiful output https://t.co/BwZY0sRIC6

⚗️ One of the most common integrations developers struggle to test is Guzzle. Fortunately, it has a `MockHandler` you can set up to return predefined responses. Since it uses the existing `Client` and `Response` objects, there's no need to change your implementation. https://t.co/Ui2Zyqj2Lt

I don't think most people know that you can pretty easily run a WP website like this, with everything managed by Composer. https://t.co/BOF9i6qPTy

🔥 Something I'm doing a *lot* in my own codebases: extracting exception messages to domain exceptions and readable static methods. Really cleans up codebases and allows for better reusability. More #DevTips: https://t.co/LhsCAz563J https://t.co/OQH4D3IZV9

🔥 If you work with PHP composer all day, consider adding ./vendor/bin to your path to save those precious keystrokes ⌨️ https://t.co/J6V1ZLxSYZ
Walkabout JMac @gonedark
⚗️ Need to control a defined constant in your tests? You can use the <const> element in your phpunit.xml file to define a dummy value your code will use when the tests run. https://t.co/cMMpWOJBzt

Quick reminder: you can run `composer outdated` to get a quick overview of available updates. Red: can be updated with current constraints. Yellow: Update available that doesn't match your current requirements. https://t.co/DpyAHgUMIb
Jason McCreary @gonedark
⚗️ Whenever I generate test data, I like to explicitly set values which could change behavior, even if they are currently defaulted with the same value. The future brings change and resolving such a failure can be hard. https://t.co/d030JfKbJO

TIP: You want to export #laravel eloquent query to native mysql? Here's a quick way to do it: https://t.co/ORGfKtEHNY - Gives out everything you need to run it in mysql console * Warning, doesn't go friendly with relationships and so on. Works on single queries

🔥 In many cases avoiding `else` and using early returns will greatly improve readability of your code. I wish somebody would have told me this sooner in my career. Contrived example in the image. Real world example: https://t.co/oOsSGAJLZm #bestpractices https://t.co/YgqB0kMIpg
Jason McCreary @gonedark
Came across a quick way to fake a single requirement so Composer can install a dependency instead of using the heavy handed `--ignore-platform-reqs`. https://t.co/LYsHRmTJon
Stefan Bauer @stefanbauerme
🌟 Here is another great #Tip for Composer: If you don't want to scroll through all the installation conflicts when doing a `composer update`, did you know you can ask composer why a specific package can not be installed? Just use `composer why-not <package> <version>`? https://t.co/RCZs4x34eu

Too impatient to wait for third-party packages to update their requirements? Use with care (and good test coverage!) 😅 https://t.co/rRdiPiPp3F

🔥Want to have a test route but don't want to worry about taking it out for production/ exposing it by mistake? Use this to make it only available on local. ✊ #php #laravel #100DaysOfCode https://t.co/flW5eDehuq
