In laravel I create model named 'Test':
class Test extends Eloquent { protected $table = 'test'; }
then run composer dump-autoload
then I use this code in controller :
$arr = Test::first(); dd($arr);
but this error appear:
Symfony \ Component \ Debug \ Exception \ FatalErrorException Call to undefined method Test::first()
You are probably not using that same Test class (extended from Eloquent), to be sure, you can get the full path of it by doing:
$reflector = new ReflectionClass('Test');
dd($reflector->getFileName());
