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.
