Description of problem:

Expected Results:

Additional Information/Debugging Steps:

I believe that the fail might be because of only one file found with UID and GID of 0, but it appears that the remainder of the output is also suggesting a fail even when the other files are UID and GID 1000, matching the user.

Yes, it is failing because of that .file.txt.swp file. If you remove it or change its permissions, it should pass.
