We currently apply the
RUN_SERIALproperty to tests which need an empty database, so they can wipe the database without conflicting with other tests. The growing number of tests usingRUN_SERIALbottlenecks our ability to parallelize the test suite. This PR adds a new testing database and switches most of Laravel tests to use it, running each test in a transaction so the database is always clean. This resulted in a 35-second reduction in overall running time for the test suite on my development machine.
