use UserTrait, RemindableTrait;
protected $table = 'users';

Answer 1

Auth::attempt($userdata) method will hash the password in $userdata array and check that hashed password with the database value,
so you need hashed passwords in the database,
to verify that,
please change the password in the database to $2y$10$3S3yDwfkwwLghedu4AoaTe//61QTaNC0ycTdp8hLfHtQS4XrgBPQy , and use a for the password field in the form
$2y$10$3S3yDwfkwwLghedu4AoaTe//61QTaNC0ycTdp8hLfHtQS4XrgBPQy is the laravel hashed password for a.
