assign a friend" test

Stuck on this Code Challange. It asks heck to make sure that the controller instance variable friend is equal to the users fixture for jim. And gives this code, but I'm not quite sure how to go about this.

class UserFriendshipsControllerTest < ActionController::TestCase
  context "#new" do
    context "when logged in" do
      setup do
        sign_in users(:jason)
      end

      should "assign a friend" do
        get :new, friend_id: users(:jim).id
        # Write your code for step 1 here
      end

      should "assign a user friendship" do
        get :new, friend_id: users(:jim).id
        # Write your code for step 2 here
      end
    end
  end
end
