Laravel - Stripe - Ultrahook - Webhook are not caught - php

Question

I'm using Laravel 5.4 and Laravel Cashier. I would like to be able to catch Stripe webhooks in my localhost:8888
To do so I installed ultrahook and I started it like this
Ultrahook
http://stripe.leococo.ultrahook.com -> http://localhost:8888/stripe/webhook
Laravel routes
Route::post('stripe/webhook', '\Laravel\Cashier\Http\Controllers\WebhookController#handleWebhook');
Stripe Webhook configuration
http://stripe.leococo.ultrahook.com
Problem
When I send a webhook from Stripe I get Test webhook sent successfully
In the terminal ultrahook I get this
[2017-05-31 19:26:04] POST http://localhost:8888/stripe/webhook - 200
But it seems the handleWebhook function is not triggered. It does not stop on a break point neither die('test')
I tried php artisan route:clear php artisan config:clear. I don't know wether it is normal or not, but I do not see anything in the network section in the Chrome Inspector

Add the following line in your .env
CASHIER_ENV=testing
Laravel/Cashier checks if your call to the webhook has a valid event id.
To verify this, eventExistsOnStripe calls back stripe servers with this event id to check its existence.
Here is the main webhook entry point from Laravel/Cashier 7.0:
public function handleWebhook(Request $request)
{
$payload = json_decode($request->getContent(), true);
if (! $this->isInTestingEnvironment() && ! $this->eventExistsOnStripe($payload['id'])) {
return;
}
$method = 'handle'.studly_case(str_replace('.', '_', $payload['type']));
if (method_exists($this, $method)) {
return $this->{$method}($payload);
} else {
return $this->missingMethod();
}
}
isInTestingEnvironment just check whether we are in a testing environnment or not : Thank you Cpt Obvious :)
protected function isInTestingEnvironment()
{
return getenv('CASHIER_ENV') === 'testing';
}
