Help with the Test class for the following trigger.

Below trigger updates the Employee count under contact record whenever the employee count under Task it's task is updated. 
trigger Update_employee_count_in_activity on Task (after insert, after update) {
	List<Contact> contsToUpdate = new List<Contact>();
	Schema.DescribeSObjectResult r = Contact.sObjectType.getDescribe();
	String keyPrefix = r.getKeyPrefix();
	for(Task t:trigger.new){
		String myIdPrefix = String.valueOf( t.WhoId).substring(0,3);
		if(myIdPrefix == keyPrefix){
			Contact cont = new Contact();
			cont.Id = t.WhoId;
			cont.Employees__c = t.FT_Emp__c;
			contsToUpdate.add(cont);
		}
	}
	if (contsToUpdate.size() > 0)
    {
        update contsToUpdate;
    }
}

Can anyone help me with the test class for this trigger? Thanks

In the Contact query add LIMIT 1. so it would assign the result to 1 record

Worked perfectly after debugging.
At first Account record was missing. Then added new inserted new account as per Deepak's suggestion.
The system assert was failing.
Then changed the system assert as per RZ's suggestion. It worked.
Thanks you both.
