 Review comment:
   Thanks a lot,
   
   As per your suggestion have changed the code as follows.
   ```java
   public static String replaceSubstringInBetween(final String str, final 
String replace, final String open, final String close) {
       if (str == null) {
           return null;
       }
       if (open == null || close == null) {
           return str;
       }
       final int start = str.indexOf(open);
       String preceding = str.substring(0, start + open.length());
       final int end = str.indexOf(close, start + open.length());
       String exceeding = str.substring(end);
       return preceding + open + replace + exceeding;
   }
   ```
   Please suggest that the name of the function is valid 
`replaceSubstringInBetween()` or do i need to change the name.
   
   I will add more unit test on this function.
