Laravel V6.6.0 is now released image

The Laravel team released v6.6.0 this week and it contains mostly changes and fixes.

One of the new additions is the ResponseFactory::view() can now return the first view. This will allow things like this:

return response()->view(['my/view1', 'my/view2'], ['data'], 404, ['headers']);

To learn move about Laravel’s view first and how you might use it in your apps, check out our tutorial.

Another new feature is assertDeleted for database testing. This allows you to simplify the following code:

$this->assertDatabaseMissing('posts', [
'id' => $post->id
]);

To this:

$this->assertDeleted($post);
