create method in Rspec

I need to understand this line of code in Rspec. 

create(:practice, creator: create(:physician, password: "password123", password_confirmation: "password123" ), phone: "+1 (555) 555-5554", office: "+1 (555) 555-5555", clinic_key: "abc123")

What is this create function. It is not built in rails or ruby function. Do we have its documentation?

It looks like create is called from FactoryBot.

Usually you need to create object like FactoryBot.create(:user) but if you configure factory bot 

RSpec.configure do |config|
  config.include FactoryBot::Syntax::Methods
end

(see this) you can omit FactoryBot and use short variant create(:user).

So your code creates factory practice with creator which is created by another factory physician.
