After spending countless hours looking through my code for typo's I have not been able to get past these failures... everything passed fine before adding the factorygirl stuff. I have re-watched the previous 6 videos trying to find where it went wrong. Help please. I'll start with adding the failure message from running the test..
$ ruby -I test test/functional/user_friendships_controller_test.rb Run options:

Treehouse Guest TeacherHey Brad Halstead can you push your code up to GitHub and send me a link so I can take a look at it?

Treehouse Guest TeacherHey Brad,
One line 100 of test/function/user_friendships_controller_rest.rb, change it to read:
post :create, user_friendship: { friend_id: users(:pam).profile_name }
And everything should work. If you check out the create action of the user friendships controller, it is looking for the friend_id inside of the user_friendship param which is why it was failing. Hope that helps!
