Laravel 5.1 Mockery expectation ignored while testing controller

I have a Controller depending on a UserManager. This is the controller constructor:

public function __construct(UserManager $manager) {
    $this->manager = $manager;
}

This is the test code.

public function test_something() {
    $this->withoutMiddleware();

    // Setup Input.
    $user = ['email' => '[email protected]', 'password' => 'pass', 'accessLevel' => 'admin'];

    // Setup expectations.
    $mock = \Mockery::mock("Users\UserManager")->shouldReceive('foo');

    // Bind to container... not sure whether this is needed.
    $this->app->instance("Users\UserManager", $mock);

    // Call action.
    $this->call('POST', 'api/v1/temp/users', ['user' => $user]);
}

I set the expectation on the foo method, which doesn't exists and therefore is not invoked anywhere, however my test won't fail.

Why?

You need to specify how many times the foo method should be called:

->shouldReceive('foo')->once();

Make sure that you also have a tearDown method where you reset Mockery or it won't work: 

public function tearDown()
{
    Mockery::close();
}
