Error description

  • Error Message: The failing scenario is as follows:
    1) Create a LinkedHashmap containing 10 instances of a
    particular value
    2) use the values() method to retrieve a 'Collection' of the
    values in the table
    3) use the entrySet() method to retrieve a 'Set' of the entries
    in the table
    4) Remove one of the entries from the entrySet
    5) Get an iterator over the values 'Collection' and check that
    it now contains only 9 instances of the value.
    Step 5 fails with the symptom that it now contains 10 instances
    of the value.
    .
    Stack Trace: N/A
