Laravel Dusk how to show the browser while executing tests

I am writing some tests and I want to see whether Dusk correctly fills in the input fields but Dusk doesn't show the browser while running the tests, is there any way to force it to do that?

Answer for Laravel 8 & UP

You can use php artisan dusk --browse to force showing the browser.

Updated (2021):

You can disable headless with 2 methods:

Method 1: Add this to your .env

DUSK_HEADLESS_DISABLED=true

Method 2: Add this to your special test case if you don't need to show the browser for all tests

protected function hasHeadlessDisabled(): bool
{
    return true;
}

Btw, I don't know why these are not mentioned in the documentation. I found the above methods myself from DuskTestCase.php.

Disable the headless mode in tests\DuskTestCase.php file driver() function:

$options = (new ChromeOptions)->addArguments([
    //'--disable-gpu',
    //'--headless'
]);

Near the top of your tests/DuskTestCase.php file, add:

use Facebook\WebDriver\Chrome\ChromeOptions;

In that same file, replace the entire driver() function with:

/**
 * Create the RemoteWebDriver instance.
 *
 * @return \Facebook\WebDriver\Remote\RemoteWebDriver
 */
protected function driver() {
    $options = (new ChromeOptions)->addArguments([
            //'--disable-gpu',
            //'--headless'//https://stackoverflow.com/q/49938673/470749
    ]);

    return RemoteWebDriver::create(
                    'http://localhost:9515', DesiredCapabilities::chrome()->setCapability(
                            ChromeOptions::CAPABILITY, $options
                    )
    );
}
