You need to implement __iter__ method to pass your assert statement:
def __iter__(self):
    return reversed(self)

With regards to style guide:

1. write empty subclass
class rev_subclass(list):
    pass

2. print dir(rev_subclass) and write unit tests for every method. There
are 41 of them :) There is also __doc__ attribute you need to override.

3. Implement all the methods of rev_subclass to pass the tests.
