## Implementation Gaps

### 1. Missing Laravel Features
```dart
// Documented but not implemented:

// 1. Browser Testing
class BrowserTest {
  // Need to implement:
  Future<void> browse(Function(Browser) callback);
  Future<void> visit(String page);
  Future<void> click(String text);
  Future<void> type(String field, String value);
  Future<void> press(String button);
  Future<void> assertSee(String text);
  Future<void> assertPathIs(String path);
}

// 2. Parallel Testing
class ParallelTesting {
  // Need to implement:
  void setToken(String token);
  void setProcesses(int count);
  Future<void> runInParallel();
  Future<void> withoutOverlapping(String key);
  Future<void> isolateDatabase();
}

// 3. Time Testing
class TimeTesting {
  // Need to implement:
  void travel(Duration duration);
  void freeze(DateTime time);
  void resume();
  void setTestNow(DateTime time);
  DateTime now();
}
```

### 2. Missing Test Features
```dart
// Need to implement:

// 1. Test Data Factories
class TestDataFactory<T> {
  // Need to implement:
  T define(Map<String, dynamic> attributes);
  T make([Map<String, dynamic>? attributes]);
  Future<T> create([Map<String, dynamic>? attributes]);
  List<T> makeMany(int count, [Map<String, dynamic>? attributes]);
  Future<List<T>> createMany(int count, [Map<String, dynamic>? attributes]);
}

// 2. Test Doubles
class TestDoubles {
  // Need to implement:
  dynamic spy(dynamic target);
  dynamic mock(Type type);
  dynamic fake(Type type);
  dynamic partial(Type type);
  void verifyNever(Function invocation);
  void verifyOnce(Function invocation);
}

// 3. Test Database
class TestDatabase {
  // Need to implement:
  Future<void> beginTransaction();
  Future<void> rollback();
  Future<void> refresh();
  Future<void> seed(String class);
  Future<void> truncate(List<String> tables);
}
```

### 3. Missing Assertion Features
```dart
// Need to implement:

// 1. Collection Assertions
class CollectionAssertions {
  // Need to implement:
  void assertCount(int count);
  void assertEmpty();
  void assertContains(dynamic item);
  void assertDoesntContain(dynamic item);
  void assertHasKey(String key);
  void assertHasValue(dynamic value);
}

// 2. Response Assertions
class ResponseAssertions {
  // Need to implement:
  void assertViewIs(String name);
  void assertViewHas(String key, [dynamic value]);
  void assertViewMissing(String key);
  void assertSessionHas(String key, [dynamic value]);
  void assertSessionMissing(String key);
  void assertCookie(String name, [String? value]);
}

// 3. Exception Assertions
class ExceptionAssertions {
  // Need to implement:
  void assertThrows<T>(Function callback);
  void assertDoesntThrow(Function callback);
  void assertThrowsMessage(Type type, String message);
  void assertThrowsIf(bool condition, Function callback);
}
```

## Documentation Gaps

### 1. Missing API Documentation
```dart
// Need to document:

/// Runs browser test.
/// 
/// Example:
/// ```dart
/// await browse((browser) async {
///   await browser.visit('/login');
///   await browser.type('email', 'user@example.com');
///   await browser.press('Login');
///   await browser.assertPathIs('/dashboard');
/// });
/// ```
Future<void> browse(Function(Browser) callback);

/// Creates test data factory.
///
/// Example:
/// ```dart
/// class UserFactory extends Factory<User> {
///   @override
///   User define() {
///     return User()
///       ..name = faker.person.name()
///       ..email = faker.internet.email();
///   }
/// }
/// ```
abstract class Factory<T>;
```

### 2. Missing Integration Examples
```dart
// Need examples for:

// 1. Parallel Testing
await test.parallel((runner) {
  runner.setProcesses(4);
  runner.isolateDatabase();
  await runner.run();
});

// 2. Time Testing
await test.freeze(DateTime(2024, 1, 1), () async {
  await processScheduledJobs();
  await test.travel(Duration(days: 1));
  await verifyJobsCompleted();
});

// 3. Test Doubles
var mock = test.mock(PaymentGateway);
when(mock.charge(any)).thenReturn(true);

await processPayment(mock);
verify(mock.charge(any)).called(1);
```

### 3. Missing Test Coverage
```dart
// Need tests for:

void main() {
  group('Browser Testing', () {
    test('interacts with browser', () async {
      await browse((browser) async {
        await browser.visit('/login');
        await browser.type('email', 'test@example.com');
        await browser.type('password', 'password');
        await browser.press('Login');
        
        await browser.assertPathIs('/dashboard');
        await browser.assertSee('Welcome');
      });
    });
  });
  
  group('Test Factories', () {
    test('creates test data', () async {
      var users = await UserFactory()
        .count(3)
        .create();
        
      expect(users, hasLength(3));
      expect(users.first.email, contains('@'));
    });
  });
}
```

7. Review [Events Package Specification](events_package_specification.md)

### 2. Implementation Process
For each testing feature:
1. Write tests following [Testing Guide](testing_guide.md)
2. Implement following Laravel patterns
3. Document following [Getting Started Guide](getting_started.md#documentation)
4. Integrate following [Foundation Integration Guide](foundation_integration_guide.md)

### 3. Quality Requirements
All implementations must:
1. Pass all tests (see [Testing Guide](testing_guide.md))
2. Meet Laravel compatibility requirements
3. Follow integration patterns (see [Foundation Integration Guide](foundation_integration_guide.md))
4. Match specifications in [Testing Package Specification](testing_package_specification.md)

### 4. Integration Considerations
When implementing testing features:
1. Follow patterns in [Foundation Integration Guide](foundation_integration_guide.md)
2. Ensure Laravel compatibility per [Laravel Compatibility Roadmap](laravel_compatibility_roadmap.md)
3. Use testing approaches from [Testing Guide](testing_guide.md)
4. Follow development setup in [Getting Started Guide](getting_started.md)

### 5. Performance Guidelines
Testing system must:
1. Execute tests efficiently
2. Support parallel testing
3. Handle large test suites
4. Manage test isolation
5. Meet performance targets in [Laravel Compatibility Roadmap](laravel_compatibility_roadmap.md#performance-benchmarks)

### 6. Testing Requirements
Testing package tests must:
1. Cover all testing features
2. Test browser interactions
3. Verify parallel execution
4. Check test factories
5. Follow patterns in [Testing Guide](testing_guide.md)

### 7. Documentation Requirements
Testing documentation must:
1. Explain testing patterns
2. Show browser examples
3. Cover parallel testing
4. Include performance tips
5. Follow standards in [Getting Started Guide](getting_started.md#documentation)
