2-2-5-array-list, removeElementByIndex fails with working code

[obaibula]

The following code is not accepted by 24-th test in ArrayListTest. But this code works just fine.

@Override
    @SuppressWarnings("unchecked")
    public T remove(int index) {
        Objects.checkIndex(index, size);

        T removedElement = (T) elements[index];
        Object[] copy = new Object[elements.length];

        System.arraycopy(elements, 0, copy, 0, index);
        System.arraycopy(elements, index + 1, copy, index, size - index - 1);

        elements = copy;
        size--;
        return removedElement;
    }

It works perfectly, if you just move internalArray initialization down like this:

@Test
    @Order(24)
    void removeElementByIndex() {
        fillTestArray(15, 69, 58, 78, 100);


        int removedElement = arrayList.remove(2);

        Object[] internalArray = getTestArray();

        assertThat(internalArray[2]).isEqualTo(78);
        assertThat(internalArray[1]).isEqualTo(69);
        assertThat(getTestSize()).isEqualTo(4);
        assertThat(removedElement).isEqualTo(58);
    }
