Model::withoutEvents() behavior in tests — do events always restore after the closure?

[shakin-shahria]

Hi everyone,

I've been exploring the behavior of Model::withoutEvents() in Laravel tests. According to the documentation, events should be disabled only within the closure passed to withoutEvents(), and then restored afterward.

I wrote a simple test to verify this:

public function test_without_events_scope()
{
    Event::fake();

    User::withoutEvents(function () {
        User::factory()->create(); // Events should NOT fire here
    });

    User::factory()->create(); // Events SHOULD fire here

    Event::assertDispatched(\Illuminate\Database\Events\ModelCreated::class);
}
