Please check below post for test Factory

Update your test helper like below
@isTest
Public class TestClassHelper
{    
     public User CreateUser()
    {
        //Get a profile id from the data base to assign to our user in this case make them a sys admin
        Profile p = [select id from profile where name='System Administrator'];
           
           //Create a new sys admin user and do an insert  
        User u = new User(alias = 'standt', email='noEmail@testorg.com',
                          emailencodingkey='UTF-8', lastname='Testo', languagelocalekey='en_US', localesidkey='en_US', profileid = p.Id,
                          timezonesidkey='America/Los_Angeles', username='MrTestUser@testorg.com',Resource_Type__c='Employee');
                          
        User u1 = [Select u.Profile.Name, u.ProfileId, u.Name, u.Id From User u where u.Profile.Name = 'System Administrator' limit 1];
                          
        return u;
    }
    
    public User CreateUser(string userType)
    {
        //Get a profil id from the data base to assign to our user in this case make them a sys admin
        Profile p = [select id from profile where name=:userType];
           
           //Create a new sys admin user and do an insert  
        User ur = new User(alias = 'standt', email='noEmail@testorg.com',
                          emailencodingkey='UTF-8', lastname='Testo', languagelocalekey='en_US', localesidkey='en_US', profileid = p.Id,
                          timezonesidkey='America/Los_Angeles', username='MrTestUser@testorg.com',Resource_Type__c='Employee');
