Error: Class 'Route' not found in routes.php when testing standalone Laravel package using Orchestra Testbench

I've got a bit of a weird issue at the moment.

I'm currently building a Laravel package which is on Github at https://github.com/matthewbdaly/laravel-error-snapshot. I'm using the Orchestra Testbench package to test this package on its own together with the BrowserKit extension for it.

When I run the test suite locally, it works fine. However, in Travis CI, it throws the following error:

Error: Class 'Route' not found in /home/travis/build/matthewbdaly/laravel-error-snapshot/src/routes.php on line 3

Source

So I tried explicitly importing the Route facade in routes.php. Again it only worked locally, but it returned a different error message:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught RuntimeException: A facade root has not been set. in /home/travis/build/matthewbdaly/laravel-error-snapshot/vendor/laravel/framework/src/Illuminate/Support/Facades/Facade.php:218

Source

I'm really not sure why it's working in one environment but not another. Can anyone shed any light on this? It doesn't look like a temporary issue with Travis CI as far as I can tell, but I'm not sure what else it could be.

EDIT: This is interesting...

If I install Xdebug and run the tests with coverage enabled, I can reproduce the error locally:

PHP Fatal error:  Uncaught Error: Class 'Route' not found in /home/matthew/Projects/laravel-error-snapshot/src/routes.php:3
Stack trace:

#5 /home/matthew/Projects/laravel-error-snapshot/vendor/phpunit/ in /home/matthew/Projects/laravel-error-snapshot/src/routes.php on line 3

I think it's something to do with the Route facade not being resolved somehow.

As it turned out, the answer was fairly straightforward. I just needed to exclude the routes file from the test coverage generation:

The filter section from file phpunit.xml:

<filter>
    <whitelist processUncoveredFilesFromWhitelist="true">
        <directory suffix=".php">./src</directory>
        <exclude>
            <directory suffix=".php">./src/database</directory>
            <file>./src/routes.php</file>
        </exclude>
    </whitelist>
</filter>
