# Testing

The Excel facade can be used to swap the importer to a fake.

# Testing imports with dynamic file name/path

If you have dynamic naming for files or paths, you can use a regular expression to represent those while testing:

/**
* @test
*/
public function user_can_import_users() 
{
    Excel::fake();
    
    $this->actingAs($this->givenUser())
         ->get('/users/import/xlsx');
    
    // Tells the mock to use regular expressions
    Excel::matchByRegex(); 
    // For a given dynamic named file 'dynamic_1234_filename.xlsx'
    Excel::assertImported('/\w{7}_\d{4}\_\w{8}\.xlsx/', 'diskName');
}

Please note that your expression must match only one file/path. If more than one match is found, the test will fail.
