I set up the ""page-2/"" as an optional regular expression and my default had a default kwarg. Reversing this URL without the page worked but not when I added the page argument. So I created some test cases and found some interesting results... The first test case without the '$' terminated URL, results in: `AssertionError: '/optional/1/2' != '/optional/1/2/'` With the '$' terminated URL, it results in an exception, which is what I was triggering in my project, it seems: AssertionError: '/optional/1/2/' != I'll attach the testing changes..."
