Java Local Development Environments Advanced Tooling Refactoring

Rename Refactoring code challenge: showing compilation error when answer is pasted but running error free in IDE.

I am seeing no errors in the IDE while running the KaraokeMachine.java code after performing the refactoring rename. However, it shows compilation error when I paste my answer in the challenge box.

Take a look at line 116 in your code. I think the challenge is expecting the getSongsForArtist method but you have getSongForArtist.

Post back if you are still stuck.

Happy coding,
Ken

Yes, you are right !! Added s and it worked. Thank you so much for the quick response.
