Didn't find is_palindrome() but I did

I am getting the error "Didn't find is_palindrome() " Here is what I code which appears to have the method. How am I supposed to use the is_palindrome()? Thank you.

tests.py 
import unittest

from string_fun import is_palindrome


class PalindromeTestCase(unittest.TestCase):
    def test_good_palindrome(self):
        self.assertTrue(is_palindrone('tacocat'))

    def test_bad_palindrome(self):
        pass
string_fun.py 
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]

Never mind. I re-did it and it worked this time. I put the following: self.assertTrue(is_palindrome('tacocat'))
