TestFailure: Assertion failed in first practice from Squeak by Example
Hi Eric,
Check your white space.
There is a difference between 'oh no' and 'oh no '. While its hard for me to tell if this is your problem it is a common difficulty. And it will be easy for you to eliminate it as a possibility.

Yes, the shout method is defined in the String object.

Hell Squeakers,
At home I went through the first half of the
Squeak by Example
book. The guided practice went without a hitch
however, when I
worked through the first practice of writing a
simple String method
at work, on a different image, I ran into this
problem. Why am I
receiving an 'Assertion failed' message?
testShout self assert: ('oh no' shout = 'OH NO!')
where the shout method is defined? In String?
shout ^ self asUppercase , '!'
TestFailure: Assertion failed

Hello Jerome,
I checked the white space and it was the same. I went and created numerous other String methods basically invoking existing methods and every test run seems to yield a signal failure causing the assertion to fail. I moved from the Cassou Dev Image to the OLPC Etoys Dev Image and made several of my own String methods and respective tests which all ran successfully. I don't know why my coding didn't work in both cases. Thanks for the time. Have a good day.
