I'm getting an error on this quiz saying that I am not passing in a string to the function but I'm pretty sure that I am.
import unittest
from string_fun import is_palindrome
class PalindromeTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
def setUp(self):
tcat = 'tacocat'
cat = 'cat'
def test_good_palindrome(self):
self.assertTrue(is_palindrome('tacocat'))
def test_bad_palindrome(self):
self.assertFalse(is_palindrome('yarn'))
def is_palindrome(yarn):
"""Return whether or not a string is a palindrome.
A palindrome is a word/phrase that's the same in
both directions.
"""
return yarn == yarn[::-1]

You can pass the challenge by removing
def setUp(self):
tcat = 'tacocat'
cat = 'cat'
