Usually you don't even need to use the Request class in your tests.

public function testStore()
{
    Sanctum::actingAs($this->user, ['*']);

    $response = $this->postJson('/order/store', [
        'doAssigned' => false,
        'doValidate' => false,
    ]);

    $response->assertJsonPath('status', 'draft');
}
