Automated testing cannot replace manual testing because of following reason:

- Automated testing cannot replace the analytical skills required to conduct testing. It can only enhance or supplement manual testing,

- Through manual testing, information can be gathered about the application, and real-time decisions can be made about how to enhance a test that would be too difficult to program into an automated script.

- We need a manual tester to analyze and maintain the automated scripts after they can run.

To use an iterator to traverse through the contents of a collection, follow these steps:

- Obtain an iterator to the start of the collection by calling the collections iterator() method.

- Set up a loop that makes a call to hasNext(). Have the loop iterate as long as hasNext() returns true.

- Within the loop, obtain each element by calling next().

Constructor is not a special method.

Constructor is block of code that is executed automatically whenever object of the class is created.

- Because of the block nature, multiple statements are processed at once thereby improving performance. 

- PL/SQL handles exceptions on catching which, action can be taken.

Session storage is same like local storage but the data is valid for a session. In simple words the data is deleted as soon as you close the browser.

To create a session storage you need to use “sessionStorage.variablename” . In the below code we have a created a variable called as “clickcount”.

If you refresh the browser the count increases. But if you close the browser and start again the “clickcount” variable starts from zero.

if(sessionStorage.clickcount)

{

sessionStorage.clickcount=Number(sessionStorage.clickcount)+1;

}

else

{

sessionStorage.clickcount = 0;

} 

Top level class is also called outer class. It is not defined inside any class.
