Stumped by hash declaration related errors.

UPDATE: Yes, of course, an anonymous hash! Thank you rhesa, liverpole and jwkrahn. That ran it through to completion for the first time in several disjointed stolen moments with this code over a week or two. Building this test suite is the 'hobby' project waiting in a distant window for me to have breaks from other projects. This question got composed last night after too many hours of staring at php code for a client, before such a stolen moment. Before being finally submitted this evening during another such moment.

This code:

    $test_subscriptions->{"test_case-$j"} = (
          'fname' => $lname,
          'lname' => $fname,
            'zip' => '02486',
          'email' => $email,
          'lists' => ['news','updates','vols-annc'],
    );

Any clues appreciated.
