How to get data from DB in Test Laravel 5

Question

Hello I write test and want to get data from DB in it, so I do next

Company.php

namespace App\Models;

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Model;

class Company extends Model
{
    protected $table = 'companies';
}

MyTest.php

<?php
use App\Models\Company;

class MyTest extends TestCase {

    public function testFileUploadAction()
    {
        $company = Company::find(1);
    }


}

but have error

Fatal error: Call to a member function connection() on a non-object in /myproject/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Database/Eloquent/Model.php on line 3146

So how I can get data From DB in test?

Update: all my tests work fine issue only in get data from DB in test.

Model work fine.

**Update I found solution error was because application wasn't booted so I add

$app = require __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/app.php';

$app->make('Illuminate\Contracts\Console\Kernel')->bootstrap();

and all work fine

The line that refers to your MyTestController. I actually ope that TestCase class is extending BaseController tat comes with laravel is it? — Borjante
