Description

Illuminate\Foundation\Http\FormRequest's boolean() method isn't parsing "true" correctly as from the method's description is clear:

Returns true when value is "1", "true", "on", and "yes". Otherwise, returns false.

On the validation step I get error: 422 field must be true or false

Steps To Reproduce

1. Create any form request
2. Add any rule to validate as boolean
3. pass from the frontend added-rule=true
4. validate in the controller with $request->boolean('added-rule')
5. validation will fail

ValidatesAttributes class has method validateBoolean, where acceptable values are: $acceptable = [true, false, 0, 1, '0', '1'];, then what's the point of $request->boolean('added-rule') to filter string "true"/"false"?
