Laravel Verification Loop

Run before PRs, after major changes, and pre-deploy.

When to Use

Before opening a pull request for a Laravel project
After major refactors or dependency upgrades
Pre-deployment verification for staging or production
Running full lint -> test -> security -> deploy readiness pipeline

How It Works

Run phases sequentially from environment checks through deployment readiness so each layer builds on the last.
Environment and Composer checks gate everything else; stop immediately if they fail.
Linting/static analysis should be clean before running full tests and coverage.
Security and migration reviews happen after tests so you verify behavior before data or release steps.
Build/deploy readiness and queue/scheduler checks are final gates; any failure blocks release.

Phase 1: Environment Checks

bash

php -v
composer --version
php artisan --version

Verify
```
.env
```
is present and required keys exist
Confirm
```
APP_DEBUG=false
```
for production environments
Confirm
```
APP_ENV
```
matches the target deployment (
```
production
```
,
```
staging
```
)

If using Laravel Sail locally:

bash

./vendor/bin/sail php -v
./vendor/bin/sail artisan --version

Phase 1.5: Composer and Autoload

bash

composer validate
composer dump-autoload -o

Phase 2: Linting and Static Analysis

bash

vendor/bin/pint --test
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse

If your project uses Psalm instead of PHPStan:

bash

vendor/bin/psalm

Phase 3: Tests and Coverage

bash

php artisan test

Coverage (CI):

bash

XDEBUG_MODE=coverage php artisan test --coverage

CI example (format -> static analysis -> tests):

bash

vendor/bin/pint --test
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
XDEBUG_MODE=coverage php artisan test --coverage

Phase 4: Security and Dependency Checks

bash

composer audit

Phase 5: Database and Migrations

bash

php artisan migrate --pretend
php artisan migrate:status

Review destructive migrations carefully
Ensure migration filenames follow
```
Y_m_d_His_*
```
(e.g.,
```
2025_03_14_154210_create_orders_table.php
```
) and describe the change clearly
Ensure rollbacks are possible
Verify
```
down()
```
methods and avoid irreversible data loss without explicit backups

Phase 6: Build and Deployment Readiness

bash

php artisan optimize:clear
php artisan config:cache
php artisan route:cache
php artisan view:cache

Ensure cache warmups succeed in production configuration
Verify queue workers and scheduler are configured
Confirm
```
storage/
```
and
```
bootstrap/cache/
```
are writable in the target environment

Phase 7: Queue and Scheduler Checks

bash

php artisan schedule:list
php artisan queue:failed

If Horizon is used:

bash

php artisan horizon:status

If

queue:monitor

is available, use it to check backlog without processing jobs:

bash

php artisan queue:monitor default --max=100

Active verification (staging only): dispatch a no-op job to a dedicated queue and run a single worker to process it (ensure a non-

sync

queue connection is configured).

bash

php artisan tinker --execute="dispatch((new App\\Jobs\\QueueHealthcheck())->onQueue('healthcheck'))"
php artisan queue:work --once --queue=healthcheck

Verify the job produced the expected side effect (log entry, healthcheck table row, or metric).

Only run this on non-production environments where processing a test job is safe.

Examples

Minimal flow:

bash

php -v
composer --version
php artisan --version
composer validate
vendor/bin/pint --test
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
php artisan test
composer audit
php artisan migrate --pretend
php artisan config:cache
php artisan queue:failed

CI-style pipeline:

bash

composer validate
composer dump-autoload -o
vendor/bin/pint --test
vendor/bin/phpstan analyse
XDEBUG_MODE=coverage php artisan test --coverage
composer audit
php artisan migrate --pretend
php artisan optimize:clear
php artisan config:cache
php artisan route:cache
php artisan view:cache
php artisan schedule:list
