Testing with unencrypted cookies doesn't work

[gjm]

• Laravel Version: 6.11.0
• PHP Version: 7.4
• Database Driver & Version: n/a

Description:

I have configured a cookie not to be encrypted in App\Http\Middleware\EncryptCookies middleware. This cookie is used in another middleware, along with other (normally encrypted) cookies.

When I'm testing the middleware, I can't access both types of cookies. Either I can access the unencrypted one (using disableCookieEncryption) or the encrypted one.

Steps To Reproduce:

Configure the cookie name plain not to be encrypted in App\Http\Middleware\EncryptCookies:

class EncryptCookies extends BaseEncrypter
{
    protected $except = [
        'plain',
    ];
}

With this test I can only access plain cookie (encrypted is null):

public function testCanAccessCookies ()
{
    $this->disableCookieEncryption()
         ->withCookie('plain', 'plain value')
         ->withCookie('encrypted', 'encrypted value')
         ->get('/');
}

With this test I can only access encrypted cookie (plain is the encrypted string value):

public function testCanAccessCookies ()
{
    $this->withCookie('plain', 'plain value')
         ->withCookie('encrypted', 'encrypted value')
         ->get('/');
}

You seem to be correct. The except property isn't taken into account when using this method.

@driesvints i want to help to solve this problem, so i create a PR about my solution. If there are some suggestions, that would be great.
