The verification regex is error

AssertionError: Regex didn't match: 'engine\s*=\s*create_engine\(\r?\n?\\'?\"?\‘?sqlite\:\/\/\/movies\.db\\'?\"?\’?\s*\,\s*\r?\n?echo\=False\s*\)' not found in "# insert your code here\nfrom sqlalchemy import create_engine\nfrom sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base\n\nengine = create_engine('sqlite:///movies.db', echo = False)\n\nBase = declarative_base()\n\nclass Movie(Base):\n tablename = 'movies'" :

I may right but the assert return error due to has the special characters in it "’?"

models.py 
# insert your code here
from sqlalchemy import create_engine
from sqlalchemy.ext.declarative import declarative_base

engine = create_engine('sqlite:///movies.db', echo = False)

Base = declarative_base()

class Movie(Base):
    __tablename__ = 'movies'

Apparently, the challenge doesn't like white space where the echo term is set. Try it this way instead:

engine = create_engine('sqlite:///movies.db', echo=False)

Thank you Steven Parker . I quit the browser then restart and seem it worked. You should not use regex for this @treehouse
