Test infrastructure now uses the same MySQL 8.0 engine as local dev
and production. SQLite is no longer used anywhere in the project.
Eliminates the SQLite "rebuild on FK add" quirk that forced session 2.5
to omit a foreign key on form_schemas.default_crowd_type_id (Task 2 of
this session restores it).
Configuration:
- phpunit.xml: DB_CONNECTION=sqlite (:memory:) replaced with mysql
pointing at crewli_test database (127.0.0.1:3306, crewli/secret)
- Makefile: new test-db-create target creates crewli_test in the
bm_mysql Docker container; make test ensures it exists before
running suite
Latent-bug surfacing — fixes that MySQL exposed:
1. form_submissions.idempotency_key was declared `ulid()` (VARCHAR 26)
while FormRequest validates `string|max:30`. SQLite ignored the cap;
MySQL truncated and rejected. Column widened to string(30) to match
validation.
2. FormFieldValidationRuleService / FormFieldConfigService /
FormFieldBindingService::snapshotShapesFor — toJsonShape iterated
collection in DB-default order (insertion-stable on SQLite, undefined
on MySQL). Schema_snapshot bytes drifted across re-emits, breaking
audit-replay. Added `->sortBy('id')` (ULID = insertion-order
semantics, deterministic) on all three.
3. FormSubmissionObserverTest::test_denormalized_indexes_exist queried
sqlite_master directly. Replaced with the cross-engine
information_schema.STATISTICS query (the real production check is
on MySQL anyway).
4. JSON column key order non-determinism: MySQL JSON columns may
round-trip associative-array keys in a different order than they
were inserted. assertSame on JSON-derived associative arrays now
uses assertEquals (structural equality) where the test was previously
over-asserting on key order:
- ConditionalLogicActivityLogPayloadTest
- ConditionalLogicBackfillTest::test_rollback_reconstructs_canonical_json
- FormFieldBindingMigrationTest::test_rollback_reconstructs_json_and_drops_table
- FormFieldOptionServiceAndScopeTest::test_replace_options_emits_activity_log_on_field_only
- FormFieldOptionsActivityLogTest::test_field_updated_payload_contains_options_diff_when_options_change
- FormFieldOptionsBackfillTest::test_forward_migration_backfills_rows_strips_translations_and_rewrites_snapshot
- FormFieldOptionsSnapshotAndStrictRequestTest::test_submission_snapshot_embeds_rich_shape_options
5. Backfill / migration tests (4 classes, 21 tests) ran migrate:rollback
then migrate inside RefreshDatabase's wrapping transaction. MySQL
DDL implicit-commits the surrounding transaction, leaving Laravel
unable to ROLLBACK TO SAVEPOINT at end-of-test (1305 SAVEPOINT
does not exist). Replaced RefreshDatabase with a per-test
migrate:fresh in setUp + RefreshDatabaseState::\$migrated = false to
force the next RefreshDatabase test to re-migrate cleanly:
- FormFieldBindingMigrationTest
- ConditionalLogicBackfillTest
- FormFieldOptionsBackfillTest
- FormFieldValidationRuleBackfillTest
All 1386 tests now pass on MySQL. Larastan baseline unchanged.

About Laravel
Laravel is a web application framework with expressive, elegant syntax. We believe development must be an enjoyable and creative experience to be truly fulfilling. Laravel takes the pain out of development by easing common tasks used in many web projects, such as:
- Simple, fast routing engine.
- Powerful dependency injection container.
- Multiple back-ends for session and cache storage.
- Expressive, intuitive database ORM.
- Database agnostic schema migrations.
- Robust background job processing.
- Real-time event broadcasting.
Laravel is accessible, powerful, and provides tools required for large, robust applications.
