Laravel 7 throw exception in test with withoutExceptionHandling()

I try to test an unauthorised route with Laravel unit tests. Even with $this->withoutExceptionHandling(); the test fails with an exception.

Here is my test:

    /** @test */
    public function a_user_without_token__check_login_fails()
    {
        $this->withoutExceptionHandling();

        $response = $this->get(route('checkLogin'));
        $response->assertStatus(302);
    }

The test results:

✕ a user without token  check login fails

  Tests:  1 failed, 16 passed, 48 pending

   Illuminate\Auth\AuthenticationException

  Unauthenticated.
