How to call properties created in setupMethods without closures

[geisi]

Hello,

assume you have following code in your setup beforeEach method:

beforeEach(function () {
    $this->user = User::factory()->withPersonalTeam()->create();
});

Is there any workaround to call the $this->user property without using a closure for your test?

it('cannot be accessed by unauthenticated')
    ->actingAs($this->user)
    ->get(route('company.show', $this->user->currentTeam))
    ->assertStatus(302);

this gives me a "Using $this when not in object context error".

Do you have any ideas?

Thanks to nuno ->you can achieve that by using the tap() method like mentioned in the docs. https://pestphp.com/docs/higher-order-tests

it('cannot be accessed by unauthenticated')
    ->tap(fn() => actingAs($this->user))
    ->tap(fn() => get(route('company.show', $this->user->currentTeam)))
    ->assertStatus(302);
