Rails test error in terminal

I'm a beginner trying to learn rails. When i tried to run the "rails test" command, I get this message. I don't understand what this message is :/ 

rails test

It's telling you that you likely have either ommitted an end from your static_pages_controller_test.rb file. Or, you have an extra end in that file.

If you look at the error: 

..../test/controllers/static_pages_controller_test.rb:26 syntax error,   
     unexpected end-of-input, expecting keyword_end (SyntaxError)`

It's telling you that something is amiss on line 26. Then syntax error, means you have typed something incorrectly. It then says unexpected end-of-input which means that the parser couldn't figure out where to end the method, and the reason for that is that it was expecting keyword_end, which means there is an end keyword missing.

The error message is actually telling you exactly where the issue is.

On line 26 of your static_pages_controller_test.rb file, you're missing an end.

...static_pages_controller_test.rb:26: syntax error, unexpected end-of-input, expecting keyword_end (SyntaxError)...
