RATIONALE-
An important assumption when we consider the one-way ANOVA is that the population under consideration is Normally distributed.When,this assumption for a parametric one-way Anova is not met,we should find another non-parametric approach by which we can test our desired hypothesis.
Kruskal-Wallis H is one of them.It is a non-parametric approach to test whether the samples comes from the same population or not.The desired hypothesis is same as ANOVA,implying it is a very good alternative when the required conditions for one-way ANOVE is not met.(ANSWER)
