  <p>My class is called ArrayListError.java and is found in <code>/home/eliezer/Desktop/myclasses</code>. </p>
  
  <p>The randoop docs are found at: <a href="http://randoop.googlecode.com/hg/doc/index.html" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://randoop.github.io/randoop/manual/index.html</a>. </p>
  
  <p>I am sure it is something really trivial but I'm inexperienced with these things. </p>
