Lumen - Using factory() function in tests make error

I'm using Lumen 8.3 ,wanted to use factory() function in my tests, it gives me Undefined Function ,there is nothing useful in the Docs of Lumen

Am i missing something here?

class ProductTest extends TestCase
{

    public function test_if_can_send_products_list(){
        $products = factory('App/Products',5)->make();
        $this->json('post','/payouts',$products)
        ->seeJson([
            'created' => true,
        ]);

    }
}

Error: Call to undefined function factory()

It's better to use direct class like that:

$products = factory(Products::class, 5)->create();

don't forget to add Products model usage (namespace).

Edit

You should create Factory:

<?php

namespace Database\Factories;

use App\Products;
use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\Factory;
use Illuminate\Support\Str;

class ProductFactory extends Factory
{
    protected $model = Products::class;

    public function definition(): array
    {
        return [
            'name' => $this->faker->unique()->userName()
        ];
    }
}

And add HasFactory Trait to your model:

use Illuminate\Database\Eloquent\Factories\HasFactory;
class Products extends Model {
   use HasFactory;
}

you can also use it like this

Products::factory()->count(5)->make();

I just uncommented these lines in app.php file

$app->withFacades();

$app->withEloquent();
