Dusk: Problem running Laravel Dusk test in Travis

[jaonoctus]

I'm trying to get Travis to run the Dusk test, but I always get an error. The tests work well on my local environment, but when Travis run the Test I get an error like this: NoSuchElementException: no such element: Unable to locate element: (see on travis)

   - php artisan serve &

Hi @jaonoctus , sorry i couldn't reply yesterday. First, thanks for your kind help!

I am still fighting with this... for some reason i believe that my APP_URL is causing errors and the paths are not being formed correctly.

This is a very basic test, which checks the login page appears:

public function testBasicExample()
    {
        $this->browse(function (Browser $browser) {
            $browser->visit('/')
                    ->assertSee('Login');
        });
    }

There was 1 failure:
1) Tests\Browser\ExampleTest::testBasicExample
Did not see expected text [Login] within element [body].
Failed asserting that false is true.

I am echoing the app url in travis fwrite(STDERR, 'App URL is: '.env('APP_URL')); and it is correctly showing http://127.0.0.1:8000

No idea on what else to try...Any other help will be much appreciated!!

Thanks!
Damian

I was missing the key:generate on the travis config.
