Testing live() and afterStateUpdated()

for a pest test and testing live(), should assertSet() be used? This is what i am trying, but getting null for the year_built value according to the assertSet output. If i try assertFormSet() of course i just get the original fill values.
test('selecting a property field updates year built and total units field', function () {

ray($this->rfta->property->year_built)->label('rfta property - year_built');
$property = Property::factory()->create();
ray($property->year_built)->label('new property - year_built');

// Simulate selecting a property to see if other fields are updated
/** @phpstan-ignore-next-line */
livewire(RftaResource\Pages\EditRfta::class, ['record' => $this->rfta->id])
->set('property_id', $property->id)
->assertSet('year_built', $property->year_built)
->assertSet('total_units', $property->total_units);
});
test('selecting a property field updates year built and total units field', function () {

ray($this->rfta->property->year_built)->label('rfta property - year_built');
$property = Property::factory()->create();
ray($property->year_built)->label('new property - year_built');

// Simulate selecting a property to see if other fields are updated
/** @phpstan-ignore-next-line */
livewire(RftaResource\Pages\EditRfta::class, ['record' => $this->rfta->id])
->set('property_id', $property->id)
->assertSet('year_built', $property->year_built)
->assertSet('total_units', $property->total_units);
});

im really surprised this isnt documented and/or someone else really hasnt brought it up in discord. Though in general, dont see a lot of detailed pest testing discussion in general, so maybe im just missing something. I do though get a bit detailed in some of my tests.

fillForm() can be used :) its the same as using a form normally

so you can use it multiple times?

yes same as assertFormData or whatever it is

and it will only fill the field that you specify?

yup! it calls set() for each field you pass, with the correct state path prefix

so whats wrong with set() then? Is that even the issue or is it more the assertSet()? Sorry for the 20 questions and thanks. just want to make sure we are in the right direction. currently working on a different project atm

most forms have a state path like data. or mountedActionData. if you use fillForm() we will add that state path to the start of each field name
fillForm([
'name' => 'Dan'
])
fillForm([
'name' => 'Dan'
])
actually does this
set('data.name', 'Dan')
set('data.name', 'Dan')
except you dont have to think about the state path same with assertSet()
