Pest 4 - Frontend websocket testing with multiple browser instances

[Severino]

Hi,

I need to create frontend tests for my application, where I also use Laravel Reverb for websocket communication. Previously, I used Laravel Dusk, and it was really easy to setup multiple browsers to events for changes made inside another browser instance. Is there any plan to offer such functionality in Pest in the future?

Thank you.

hii @Severino Pest can test backend real-time features (notifications, SMS), but it does not have built-in support for multi-browser real-time UI/websocket testing like Laravel Dusk. For that, Dusk or Playwright/Cypress is still recommended.
