You can do this:

    $names = collect([
    
        'name1',
        'name2'
    
    ]);
    $this->browse(function ($browser) use ($names) {
                $browser->visit('/names');
                $names->each(function ($name, $key) {
                  $browser->type("array[$key]", $name);
                });
                $browser->press('Send');
            });

Based on your code You can do this:

public function create(Browser $browser)
{
    $browser
    ->select('journal_id',1)
    ->pause(100)
    ->click('.add-line')
    ->click('.add-line');
    
    $inputs = $browser->elements('input[name^="debits["]');
    $inputs[0]->sendKeys(10); // code here to add 10 to first debits
    $inputs[1]->sendKeys(15); // code here to add 15 to second debits
}

If you want to do it with a for loop you can do this:

$inputs = $browser->elements('input[name^="debits["]');
foreach ($inputs as $input) {
  $input->sendKeys('100');
}
