This factory was causing unexpected behavior with the UserFactory;
basically, this factory was taking precedence whenever
factory(User::class) was called.
Oddly, this factory was effective only in the Travis-CI environment and
not anybody's respective local environment. Presumably, some nuance
with the filesystem coupled with Composer's autoloader affects the
order in which the respective factories are registered in different
environments.
In any case, this factory is no longer useful and is hereby deleted,
which fixes a handful of test methods that heretofore had to be marked
as incomplete.
Currently, the test suite requires way longer than necessary because it runs all the scaffolded tests, even though they exit immediately.
Moving them until they are implemented will speed-up the test suite execution time dramatically.
