Cause

The root of the problem is a bug that only exists in the development branch of Laravel 13.x (dev-master or 13.x-dev), which is not yet released at the time of writing.

The reason why Laravel 13 was installed is because:

Testbench 11.x-dev requires laravel/framework:^13.0

My composer.json had "minimum-stability": "dev" without "prefer-stable": true

So when I ran composer require --dev orchestra/testbench, Composer pulled in the latest dev versions of both Testbench and Laravel

Solution

To avoid this kind of issue in your package development environment:

1. Update your composer.json to include:

"prefer-stable": true,
"minimum-stability": "dev"

This ensures that only stable versions of packages are selected unless absolutely necessary.

2. Require Testbench again:

composer remove orchestra/testbench
composer require --dev orchestra/testbench

This time, Composer will install the latest stable version of Testbench

3. Run your tests again — the error should disappear.
