According to the code, user must select at least one topping otherwise it should print 'You must choose at least one topping' then ask again but instead program prints a dictionary with toppings as key and empty list as value, which is wrong.

I can reproduce the issue.

I can reproduce the issue.

prompt([
    {
        'type': 'checkbox',
        'name': 'invalid_value',
        'message': 'Any value invalid',
        'validate': lambda answer: False,
        'choices': [{'name': 'item 1'}, {'name': 'item 2'}, {'name': 'item 3'}]
    }
])

The example from the documentation doesn't work either.
