Laravel Generate User data

I'm new in Laravel and I want to generate fake data for the table Users. Right know this is working fine:

UserFactory.php

$factory->define(App\User::class, function (Faker $faker) {
    return [
        'name' => $faker->name,
        'email' => $faker->unique()->safeEmail,
        'password' => '$2y$10$TKh8H1.PfQx37YgCzwiKb.KjNyWgaHb9cbcoQgdIVFlYg7B77UdFm', // secret
        'remember_token' => str_random(10),
    ];
});

UsersTableSeeder.php

public function run() {
        factory(App\User::class, 5)->create();
}

DatabaseSeeder.php

public function run() {
        $this->call(UsersTableSeeder::class);
}

The previous code generates 5 rows in the User table and it is OK.

Now I would like to generate one more extra user ( in addition of the 5 rows already generated) with fixed fields like: 

return [
        'name' => 'user test',
        'email' => '[email protected]',
        'password' => '$2y$10$TKh8H1.PfQx37YgCzwiKb.KjNyWgaHb9cbcoQgdIVFlYg7B77UdFm', // secret
        'remember_token' => str_random(10),
    ];

Where I have to put the above code? Do I have to generate a new UserFactory?

You can put the following code in your UsersTableSeeder.phps run() method right after your existing code:

factory(App\User::class)->create([
        'name' => 'user test',
        'email' => '[email protected]',
        'password' => '$2y$10$TKh8H1.PfQx37YgCzwiKb.KjNyWgaHb9cbcoQgdIVFlYg7B77UdFm', // secret
        'remember_token' => str_random(10),
    ]);

You could also use 'password' => bcrypt(USERPASSWORDHERE), to create an encrypted string of USERPASSWORDHERE
