There is a test for User model 

it { should respond_to(:reverse_relationships) }

fails:

At the same time, in rails console –sandbox it looks quite ok:

irb(main):014:0> user.respond_to?(:reverse_relationships)
=> true

How can it be?

    The stack trace shows that the error is that the method “it” is undefined in the current context.

    It is because you are missing a right brace on line 22 and have two right braces at line 24.
