How to add Unit Testing on my own, custom composer package?

Question

I've made a little composer package. My composer.json file as simple as it could be, it only contains name, description, author and something like that.

No require or require-dev object is provided.

I'm using PSR-4 autoloading system, and I have a directory structure like this:

|-author/package
|-- src/
|----MyClass.php
|-- tests/
|-- readme.md

And now I want to add unit testing for this package. I've created tests/ directory, but at this moment it's empty.

Can you tell me what should I do next to add unit testing for the package?

I've been searching for a while now on Google, and couldn't find any related answers.

P.S, it's a Laravel specific package.

Adding PHPUnit in a decent version looks like the first step to do:

composer require --dev phpunit/phpunit:~4.5

This will place the phpunit executable in vendor/bin/phpunit. You can run it from there.

Thanks @Sven, after not getting answer here for a while, I thought that this is how it's done. In my case, I also needed to "require" the package from illuminate to make it work.
