Answer 1

Perform a composer update, then composer dump-autoload.

If the above doesn't solve the problem, change the classmap in your composer.json file such that it contains the project-relative path to your php files:

"autoload-dev": {
    "classmap": [
        "tests/TestCase.php",
        "database/seeds/UserTableSeeder.php" //include the file with its path here
    ]
}, /** ... */

and soon after, perform a composer dump-autoload, and it should work now like a breeze!

Edit by @JMSamudio

If composer dump-autoload is not found, just enable this option composer config -g -- disable-tls true.

Answer 2

From my experience, this will show up most of the time when the class you are trying to call has some bugs and cannot be compiled. Check if the class that is not being reflected can be executed at its own.

Answer 3

A composer dump-autoload should fix it.
