Model factory is misbehaving in laravel tests - php

Question

My laravel application is built on Laravel 8.12 and uses pest php for tests,
I have two tables groups and meetings and the their relation is one to many, where a meeting belongs to a group and group has many meetings,
I have a test case where I have to assert if a group can be created successful with it's meeting, the test case works well if I create only group without it's meeting but if I create the group with it's meeting using their relation the groups table contains two records of groups instead of one.
This is my test case when I create only group record
test('user see all meetings and registered groups successful', function () {
Group::factory()->create();
dd(Group::pluck('id'));
actingWithPermission($this->user, $this->permission)
->get($this->route)
->assertViewHasAll([
'totalRegistered' => 1,
'totalMeetings' => 1,
]);
});
When I create the group record the groups table contains only one record as shown below
^ Illuminate\Support\Collection^ {#3995
#items: array:1 [
0 => 36
]
#escapeWhenCastingToString: false
}
Test case when I create group and it's meeting record
test('user see all meetings and registered groups successful', function () {
Group::factory()
->hasMeetings(1)
->create();
dd(Group::pluck('id'));
actingWithPermission($this->user, $this->permission)
->get($this->route)
->assertViewHasAll([
'totalRegistered' => 1,
'totalMeetings' => 1,
]);
});
When I dump the database contains two records of the groups instead of 1 as shown below:
^ Illuminate\Support\Collection^ {#1847
#items: array:2 [
0 => 36
1 => 37
]
#escapeWhenCastingToString: false
}
This is one to many relation ship between group and meetings
public function meetings()
{
return $this->hasMany(Meeting::class);
}
How can I fix this?
