Great! Now let's use the reverse of assertTrue which is assertFalse. Fill out test_bad_palindrome with the assertFalse assertion and a bad palindrome.
import unittest
from string_fun import is_palindrome
class PalindromeTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
def test_bad_palindrome(self):
self.assertFalse(is_palindrome('tacocat'))
def is_palindrome(yarn):
"""Return whether or not a string is a palindrome.
A palindrome is a word/phrase that's the same in
both directions.
"""
return yarn == yarn[::-1]

Courses Plus Student 16,352 PointsHi Sympathy,
For assertFalse, we are asserting that the value passed into is_palindrome is, indeed, not a palindrome. For example, calling is_palindrome("taco") will return false.
Also, you need to keep the code for test_good_palindrome.
class PalindromeTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
def test_good_palindrome(self):
self.assertTrue(is_palindrome("tacocat"))
def test_bad_palindrome(self):
self.assertFalse() # fix this line
