Q: Adding a default value to a column while creating table in laravel 5.2 I want  to add a default value to a column while creating a migration. 
How can I do this? Help me please.

A: ->default($value) 

is what you need.
Specify a "default" value for the column.
Like
$table->boolean('is_verified')->default(0);

Hope this helps!

A: Add ->default($value) to your clause, for example:
$table->text('description')->default('There is no description yet');

A: follow this Faker link. here You can create and initialize a faker generator, which can generate data by accessing properties named after the type of data you want.
