I think that the message is saying that the value of Artist.count after the
create is 1 when it should be 2, rather than the expected difference being
2, though I am not sure whether this is what you are confused about or not.

By the way,
assert_difference('Artist.count', 1) do
may be what you want, though I don't think that will make any difference to
the result.
