Test Factories Lesson

I have no idea what I broke, but after the Test Factories lesson, I get the following error: 1) Error: test: #index when logged in should get the index page without error. (UserFriendshipsControllerTest): ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid: Validation failed: Profile name Must be formatted correctly. /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392/gems/activerecord-3.2.12/lib/active_record/validations.rb:56:in save!' /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392/gems/activerecord-3.2.12/lib/active_record/attribute_methods/dirty.rb:33:insave!' /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392/gems/activerecord-3.2.12/lib/active_record/transactions.rb:264:in `block in save!' 35 tests, 55 assertions, 0 failures, 1 errors, 0 skips Which is not produced in the video, any help would be truly appreciated...

So, I went ahead and finished the Test Factories lesson and somehow ended up with 5 errors. Obviously I did something wrong here, but after reviewing the video about 20 times, I cannot find my errors at all so I could really use some help... I don't think copying and pasting the error report would help, as that would be a huge list, but the beginning of each error is listed below:

1) Error: test: #index when logged in should assign user_friendships. (UserFriendshipsControllerTest): ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid: Validation failed: Profile name Must be formatted correctly. /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392/gems/activerecord-3.2.12/lib/active_record/validations.rb:56:in `save!'

2) Error: test: #index when logged in should display date information on an accepted friendship. (UserFriendshipsControllerTest): ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid: Validation failed: Profile name Must be formatted correctly. /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392/gems/activerecord-3.2.12/lib/active_record/validations.rb:56:in `save!'

3) Error: test: #index when logged in should display friend's name. (UserFriendshipsControllerTest): ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid: Validation failed: Profile name Must be formatted correctly. /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392/gems/activerecord-3.2.12/lib/active_record/validations.rb:56:in `save!'

4) Error: test: #index when logged in should display pending information on pending friendship. (UserFriendshipsControllerTest): ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid: Validation failed: Profile name Must be formatted correctly. /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392/gems/activerecord-3.2.12/lib/active_record/validations.rb:56:in `save!'

5) Error: test: #index when logged in should get the index page without error. (UserFriendshipsControllerTest): ActiveRecord::RecordInvalid: Validation failed: Profile name Must be formatted correctly. /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p392/gems/activerecord-3.2.12/lib/active_record/validations.rb:56:in `save!'
