Error when running multiple PHPUnit Tests in Laravel 8

Unit testing in a Laravel 8 project is throwing an error when more than one test is called. The issue is causing my tests to fail when I run more than one at once. When running a batch of tests the first one runs and passes as expected, Then all subsequent tests fail when trying to run the createApplication() function from the default trait CreatesApplication. All of my tests have been run individually and pass.

Causing this error:

• Tests\Feature\ProjectDashboardTest > dashboard returns200
   Error

  Call to a member function make() on bool

  at tests/CreatesApplication.php:19
     15▕     public function createApplication()
     16▕     {
     17▕         $app = require_once __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/app.php';
     18▕
  ➜  19▕         $app->make(Kernel::class)->bootstrap();
     20▕
     21▕         return $app;
     22▕     }
     23▕ }

This occurs when the two tests run are identical.

So this code:

class DashboardTest extends TestCase
{

    public function testDashboardReturns200()
    {
        $response = $this->get('/dashboard');
        $response->assertStatus(200);
    }

    public function testDashboardReturns200V2()
    {
        $response = $this->get('/dashboard');
        $response->assertStatus(200);
    }
}

Gives this result:

php artisan test ./tests/feature/DashboardTest.php

   FAIL  Tests\Feature\DashboardTest
  ✓ dashboard returns200
  ⨯ dashboard returns200 v2

  ---

  • Tests\Feature\DashboardTest > dashboard returns200 v2
   Error

  Call to a member function make() on bool

  at tests/CreatesApplication.php:19
     15▕     public function createApplication()
     16▕     {
     17▕         $app = require_once __DIR__.'/../bootstrap/app.php';
     18▕
  ➜  19▕         $app->make(Kernel::class)->bootstrap();
     20▕
     21▕         return $app;
     22▕     }
     23▕ }


  Tests:  1 failed, 1 passed
  Time:   4.02s

Is there a fix I am missing?

Edit, Added App file as requested
