1. First make a factory by using the following code php artisan make:factory CategoryFactory -model=Category 2. Go to the CategogyFatory file in factories folder and write the following code $category_name = $this->faker->unique()->words($nb=2, $asText = true); $slug = Str::slug($category_name, '-'); return [ 'name' => $category_name, 'slug' => $slug ]; 3. You can use Str class as on top use Illuminate\Support\Str; 4. Now go to the DatabaseSeeder and write the following code in the run function \App\Models\Category::factory(6)->create(); 5. use the following command php artisan db:seed 6. You can make as many factories and call in the databaseseeder file and use the factories Thanks!
