Treehouse Guest TeacherIf you could post both your user class file and your test file into a gist and post the link here that would help all of use help you. (https://gist.github.com/)
By looking at the stack trace you've posted, it says you are trying to call the error method which is undefined. This is usually a hint you mistyped something, or forgot to define the method yourself. In this case I would guess you meant errors where you put error.
