Writing Tests getting Argument Error: Wrong Number of Arguments (0 for 1) test/unit/user_test.rb:5:in `block in <class:UserTest>'

Keep getting this error and can't find this exact one in the forum. Have been following exactly and have just hit my first hiccup. Here is user_test.rb

test "a user should enter a first name" do |variable|
    user = User.new
    assert !user.save
end

I have cleared out the users.yml file and now get this error, where the first pass should had been.

Try taking out the "|variable|" portion of that test and that should do the trick.
