Laravel view not displaying data

I am trying to pass data to a laravel blade and get that displayed. Evidently I am missing something very basic. If I use laravel format {{ $test_message }}, it is not displaying the value. If I use <?php echo $test_message ; ?>. It is working. Code from my controller - 

$data = ['message' => 'This is a test!'];
return view('test')->with([ 'test_message' => $data['message'] ]);

View 

    <html lang="en-US">
    <head>
        <meta charset="utf-8">
    </head>
    <body>
    <p> <?php echo  $test_message ; ?> </p>
    <p> {{ $test_message }}  </p>
    </body>
</html>

In the output, I have "This is a test! " for the php echo portion and {{$test_message}} for the next line.

What is your view file named? - James
test.php. I tried making changes to it and made sure that is indeed getting picked up. By the way, I am using php artisan serve command to test locally. Would that have any impact? - Jayadevan

Your issue is that your view is missing the blade part of the extension and so Laravel is not running it through the blade compiler.

Rename it to test.blade.php.

return view('test')->with('test_message', $data['message']);

or

return view('test',['test_message' => $data['message']]);

try this

and your view name should be test.blade.php

return view('test',['test_message' => $data['message']]);
