custom package development 404 on package view

Description:

I've just starting developing a Laravel 8 package that contains some custom routes and a view. I'm trying to load this package into my main Laravel project and access the configured route from my package, I'm new to developing packages in Laravel and despite following the documentation I'm getting a 404 not found. I've ran php artisan config:cache, and php artisan route:list to see whether my package's route is at least showing, and it is, but is failing to load the view.

My package's view is listed under /src/views/form.blade.php and my route is /form within the package, but accessing this in my project doesn't load the view from the package...

My package name is called: TestPackage

Not sure where I'm going wrong, some guidance would be appreciated here, the contents of php artisan route:list gives me from my main project:

+--------+----------+----------+------+---------+------------+
| Domain | Method   | URI      | Name | Action  | Middleware |
+--------+----------+----------+------+---------+------------+
|        | GET|HEAD | /        |      | Closure | web        |
|        | GET|HEAD | api/user |      | Closure | api        |
|        |          |          |      |         | auth:api   |
|        | GET|HEAD | form     |      | Closure | web        |
+--------+----------+----------+------+---------+------------+

My package's routes.php is:

Route::group(['namespace'=>'company\TestPackage\Http\Controllers'], function() {

  // Attempt 1
  // Route::get('form','TestPackageController@renderForm')->name('test-package');

  // Attempt 2, ideal
  Route::get('form', function () {
    return view('test-package::form');
  });

});

And my service provider is...

<?php

namespace company\TestPackage;

use Illuminate\Support\ServiceProvider;

class TestPackageServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider
{
  public function boot() {
    $this->loadRoutesFrom(__DIR__.'/routes/web.php');
    $this->loadViewsFrom(__DIR__.'/views', 'test-package');
  }

  public function register() {

  }
};

Thanks!
