testing Step in Model test

I was trying to do what kenneth and tried to test the Step in models,py

from django.test import TestCase
from django.utils import timezone

from .models import Course
from .models import Step

class CourseModelTests(TestCase):
    def test_course_creation(self):
        course = Course.objects.create(
            title="Pyhton Reqular Expressions",
            description="Learn to write regular expressions in Pyhton"
        )

        now = timezone.now()
        self.assertLess(course.created_at, now)

class StepModelTests(TestCase):
    def test_step_creation(self):
        step = Step.objects.create(
            title="Using the shell",
            description="Learn how to use Python's shell to play with the language and help",
            content=['Launch the shell with "python"', 
                     'You can exit the shell by entering "exit" or "quit".', 
                     'You can also exit the shell by pressing CTRL and D.']
            order=0, 
            course=Course()
        )

But of course, i got an error and i'm not quite sure why

File "/home/treehouse/workspace/learning_site/courses/tests.py", line 25

        ^

Hi Gilang, you may have worked it out by now, but you are missing a comma (,) from the end of your list.
