Laravel throws ReflectionException: Class config does not exist

(I know you may think this is a duplicate question but I really believe its not)

I am working on an API using Laravel and I had the code all sorted out and running. However out of the blues I run my test on day and I get

ReflectionException: Class config does not exist

whenever I try to store a new Model I updated Laravel to 5.7 but the problem persisted Then I thought this was a problem with the Database but 

php artisan migrate

creates database tables successfully. Running out of time.

1- You did not extend base test class TestCase:

class MyTest extends Illuminate\Foundation\Testing\TestCase// <---
{
   // Tests
}

2- In your base test class you did not include CreatesApplication trait:

class TestCase extends BaseTestCase 
{
   use CreatesApplication; // <---

   // Abstract methods.
}

3- You are initializing stuff in PHPUnit's setUpBeforeClass() or tearDown() methods! So remove them.

4- You are using PHP's GC in your tests: gc_collect_cycles() so remove it.

5- Clear all caches:

php artisan optimize:clear
php artisan clear-compiled

Deleting files in the project/bootstrap/cache/ and then running:

$php artisan clear-compiled

solved my problem!

For me the issue was with the dependencies. What worked for me was to completely remove the vendor directory and do a composer update to re-install the dependencies and vendor packages.

The issue seems to be with phpunit 6.0:

https://github.com/laravel/dusk/issues/99

I suggest upgrading to php7.x and the latest phpunit. (I know. A pain, but there are great tutorials out there for the upgrade and if you follow them step by step, you will have it done in under a half hour.)

Try

php artisan clear-compiled

If it does not solve the issue then read this thread https://github.com/laravel/dusk/issues/99 and https://github.com/laravel/framework/issues/9733
