I didn't understand self.assertEqual(self.rock, Rock()) .

if ROck() is an instance as said by kenneth sir, how does any instance contain parenthesis .

Putting parentheses after a class name creates a new instance of that class.

The line you show actually causes an error which is discovered later in the video, and then Rock() is replaced with moves.Rock().
