Insert Test ID and Password

ID 1 : “test1” & Password 1 : “password”
ID 2 : “test2” & Password 2 : “password”

> db.account.insert({ "_id":"test1", "password":"$2a$10$6tGpszC5i7B.br12D9Qn0.ZFkUNz9MxUnowataw.XUyIeHQfLcsEe", "roles" : [ "USER", "ADMIN"] })
> db.account.insert({ "_id":"test2", "password":"$2a$10$6tGpszC5i7B.br12D9Qn0.ZFkUNz9MxUnowataw.XUyIeHQfLcsEe", "roles" : [ "USER", "SUPPORT"] })

Notes:

BCrypt hash for string “password” => “$2a$10$6tGpszC5i7B.br12D9Qn0.ZFkUNz9MxUnowataw.XUyIeHQfLcsEe”
used BCrypt => intended for using in Spring application, you can use other hash
