Route::get('/test1', function() {
   return Auth::guard('admin');
});

Route::get('/test2', function() {
   return Auth::guard('user');
});

and here's the error I'm getting

Missing argument 1 for Illuminate\Auth\AuthManager::createDriver(), called in C:\xampp\htdocs\storage\framework\compiled.php on line 11193 and defined

what's wrong ?

take a look at this : laracasts.com/discuss/channels/laravel/… — ylerjen

Example with: table name is admins. model name is Admin.your guard name is admins.
