Responding by using examples is a lot easier than simply running off a list of qualities.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;26. What are your career goals?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Your answer should be positive, but keep away from going into too much detail. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;27. Why did you put down your last job/ Why are you looking to leave your current job?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Avoid paying out on your last/current employer or colleagues. In its place, stress that it was/is your choice to leave and you did so/doing so, to move on.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;28. How do you keep up-to-date with new developments in the industry?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Membership of specialized associations, reading reports in the newspaper of high-quality publications and networking, are a few of the clear responses. If you want to make an impression, back up your answer with a comment on a current industry development that might be considered relevant to the role.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;29. How do you handle or resolve a difficult situation in a preceding role?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The interviewer is looking for a clue that how you might frequently react to either a clash situation or simply how you act under pressure. Get ready some examples of a tough situation at work or even in your personal life, stating the problem, the solution and what you achieved from the experience. Concentrate on positive result that gives an indication of your skill to listen and communicate with people&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/div&gt;&lt;p style="text-align: justify;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;30. Do you have any questions?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;It’s OK to have a few ready questions written down. Refer to them, although keep away from questions that may have been covered throughout the interview. Maintain the list short, but use the chance to ask questions which you would like answered.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1'

Usability can be defined as the degree to which a given piece of software assists the person sitting at the keyboard to accomplish a task, as different to becoming an additional impediment to such success. The broad goal of usable systems is often assessed using several&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Criteria:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ease of learning&lt;br /&gt;Navigation&lt;br /&gt;Subjective user satisfaction&lt;br /&gt;General appearance&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Server side interface:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;In web testing the server side interface should be tested.&lt;br /&gt;This is done by confirm that communication is done properly.&lt;br /&gt;Compatibility of server with software, hardware, network and database should be tested.&lt;br /&gt;The client side compatibility is also tested in various platforms, using various browsers etc.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Security:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The main reason for testing the security of an web is to make out potential vulnerabilities and then repair them.&lt;br /&gt;The following types of testing are described in this section:&lt;br /&gt;Network Scanning&lt;br /&gt;Vulnerability Scanning&lt;br /&gt;Password Cracking&lt;br /&gt;Log Review&lt;br /&gt;Integrity Checkers&lt;br /&gt;Virus Detection&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Performance Testing&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Performance testing is a rigorous usability estimate of a working system under levelheaded conditions to identify usability troubles and to evaluate measures such as success rate, task time and user satisfaction with requirements. The objective of performance testing is not to find bugs, but to do away with bottlenecks and establish a baseline for future regression testing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;To conduct performance testing is to connect in a carefully controlled process of measurement and analysis. Ideally, the software under test is already established sufficient so that this process can carry on smoothly. A clearly defined set of expectations is necessary for meaningful performance testing.&lt;br /&gt;For example, for a Web application, you need to know at least two things:&lt;br /&gt;expected load in terms of concurrent users or HTTP connections&lt;br /&gt;acceptable response time&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Load testing:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Load testing is generally defined as the process of exercising the system under test by feeding it the largest tasks it can operate with. Load testing is sometimes called volume testing, or longevity/endurance testing&lt;br /&gt;Examples of volume testing:&lt;br /&gt;testing a word processor by editing a very large document&lt;br /&gt;testing a printer by sending it a very large job&lt;br /&gt;testing a mail server with thousands of users mailboxes&lt;br /&gt;Examples of longevity/endurance testing:&lt;br /&gt;testing a client-server application by running the client in a loop against the server over an extended period of time&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Goals of load testing:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Depiction bugs that do not surface in superficial testing, such as memory management bugs, memory leaks, buffer overflows, etc. Make sure that the application meets the performance baseline established during Performance testing. This is done by running regression tests against the application at a specified maximum load.&lt;br /&gt;Although performance testing and load testing can seen parallel, their objectives are different. On one hand, performance testing uses load testing techniques and tools for measurement and benchmarking reason and uses a variety of load levels whereas load testing operates at a predefined load level, the highest load that the system can accept while still functioning correctly.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Stress testing:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Stress testing is a type of testing that is used to find out the constancy of a given system or entity. This is designed to test the software with nonstandard circumstances. Stress testing attempts to find the restrictions at which the system will fail through nonstandard quantity or frequency of inputs.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Stress testing tries to break the system under test by overpowering its resources or by taking resources away from it (in which case it is sometimes called negative testing).&lt;br /&gt;The main idea behind this madness is to make sure that the system fails and recovers benevolently — this quality is known as recoverability.&lt;br /&gt;Stress testing does not break the system but instead it allows monitor how the system reacts to failure. Stress testing observes for the following.&lt;br /&gt;Does it save its state or does it crash suddenly?&lt;br /&gt;Does it just hang and freeze or does it fail gracefully?&lt;br /&gt;Is it able to recover from the last good state on restart?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Compatibility Testing&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A Testing to make sure compatibility of an application or Web site with multiple browsers, OS and hardware platforms. Different versions, configurations, display resolutions, and Internet connect speeds all can impact the behavior of the product and introduce costly and embarrassing bugs. We test for compatibility using real test environments. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;That is testing how will the system performs in the particular software, hardware or network environment. Compatibility testing can be carry out manually or can be determined by an automated functional. The idea of compatibility testing is to disclose issues related to the product &amp;amp; interaction session test suite. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;With other software as well as hardware. The product compatibility is estimated by first identifying the hardware/software/browser components that the product is designed to support. Then a hardware/software/browser matrix is designed that indicates the configurations on which the product will be tested. Then, with input from the client, a testing script is designed that will be sufficient to evaluate compatibility between the product and the hardware/software/browser matrix. Finally, the script is executed against the matrix and any anomalies are investigated to decide exactly where the incompatibility lies.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Some typical compatibility tests include testing your application:&lt;br /&gt;On various client hardware configurations&lt;br /&gt;Using different memory sizes and hard drive space&lt;br /&gt;On various Operating Systems&lt;br /&gt;In different network environments&lt;br /&gt;With different printers and peripherals (i.e. zip drives, USBs, etc.)&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;62. Which comes first test strategy or test plan?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– Test strategy comes first and this is the high level document…. and advance. Testing starts from test strategy and then based on this the test lead set up the&lt;br /&gt;test plan….&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;As a testers point of view what is the difference between web based application and client server application ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– According to Tester’s Point of view——&lt;br /&gt;1) Web Base Application (WBA)is a 3 tier application ;Browser, Back end and Server.&lt;br /&gt;Client server Application(CSA) is a 2 tier Application ;Front End ,Back end .&lt;br /&gt;2) In the WBA tester test for the Script error like java script error VB script error etc, that shown at the page. In the CSA tester does not test for any script error.&lt;br /&gt;3) Because in the WBA once changes perform return at every machine so tester has less work for test. Whereas in the CSA every time application need to be install hence ,it maybe possible that some machine has some problem for that Hardware testing as well as software testing is needed.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;63. What is the significance of doing Regression testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– To check for the bug fixes. And this fix should not disturb other functionality&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;To guarantee the newly added functionality or existing modified functionality or developer fixed bug come up with any new bug or affecting any other side effect. this is called regression test and ensure already PASSED TEST CASES would not arise any new bug.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;64. What are the diff ways to check a date field in a website?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– There are different ways like :–&lt;br /&gt;1) you can check the field width for minimum and maximum.&lt;br /&gt;2) If that field only take the Numeric Value then check it’ll only take Numeric no other type.&lt;br /&gt;3) If it takes the date or time then check for other.&lt;br /&gt;4) Same way like Numeric you can check it for the Character, Alpha Numeric and all.&lt;br /&gt;5) And the most significant if you click and hit the enter key then some time page &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;may give the error of JavaScript, that is the big fault on the page .&lt;br /&gt;6) Check the field for the Null value.&lt;br /&gt;ETC…………………&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The date field we can check in different ways &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Positive testing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;: first we enter the date in given format&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Negative Testing&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;: We enter the date in unacceptable format suppose if we enter date like 30/02/2006 it should show some error message and also we use to check the numeric or text&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-8727704091051781025?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/8727704091051781025/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=8727704091051781025' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/8727704091051781025'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/8727704091051781025'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/software-testing-interview-questions-7.html' title='Software Testing Interview Questions 7'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-5204421257717535673</id><published>2008-10-06T03:58:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:59:51.197-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Testing Interview Question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='testing interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Manual Testing Interview Questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Test Director'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Qa Testing Interview Questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Qa Testing Interview'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Software Testing Interview Questions'/><title type='text'>Software Testing Interview Questions 8</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. High severity, low priority bug?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — A page is not often accessed, or some activity is executed rarely but that thing outputs some essential Data wrongly, or corrupts the data, this will be a bug of H severity L priority&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. If project wants to release in 3months what type of Risk analysis you do in Test plan?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: – Use risk analysis to decide where testing should be focused. Since it’s not often possible to test every possible portion of an software/application, every probable combination of events, every dependency, or everything that could go wrong, risk analysis is suitable to most software development projects. This involve judgment skills, common sense, and experience. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Considerations can include:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;• Which functionality is most chief to the project’s intended purpose?&lt;br /&gt;• Which functionality is most visible to the user?&lt;br /&gt;• Which functionality has the largest safety impact?&lt;br /&gt;• Which functionality has the largest financial impact on users?&lt;br /&gt;• Which aspects of the application are most important to the customer?&lt;br /&gt;• Which aspects of the application can be tested early in the development cycle?&lt;br /&gt;• Which parts of the code are most complex, and thus most subject to errors?&lt;br /&gt;• Which parts of the application were developed in rush or panic mode?&lt;br /&gt;• Which aspects of similar/related previous projects caused problems?&lt;br /&gt;• Which aspects of similar/related previous projects had large maintenance expenses?&lt;br /&gt;• Which parts of the requirements and design are unclear or poorly thought out?&lt;br /&gt;• What do the developers think are the highest-risk aspects of the application?&lt;br /&gt;• What kinds of problems would cause the worst publicity?&lt;br /&gt;• What kinds of problems would cause the most customer service complaints?&lt;br /&gt;• What kinds of tests could easily cover multiple functionalities?&lt;br /&gt;• Which tests will have the best high-risk-coverage to time-required ratio&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;48. Test cases for IE 6.0 ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– Test cases for IE 6.0 i.e Internet Explorer 6.0:—&lt;br /&gt;1)First I go for the Installation part, means that –&lt;br /&gt;Is it working with all versions of Windows ,Netscape or other software(s) in other words we can say that IE must check with all hardware and software parts.&lt;br /&gt;2) Secondly go for the Text Part means that all the Text part appears in regular and smooth manner.&lt;br /&gt;3) Thirdly go for the Images Part means that all the Images come into view in regular and smooth manner.&lt;br /&gt;4) URL must run in a better way.&lt;br /&gt;5) Suppose Some other language used on it then URL take the Other Characters, Other than Normal Characters.&lt;br /&gt;6)Is it working with Cookies frequently or not.&lt;br /&gt;7) Is it in relation to with different script like JScript and VBScript.&lt;br /&gt;8)HTML Code work on that or not.&lt;br /&gt;9) Troubleshooting works or not.&lt;br /&gt;10) All the Tool bars are work with it or not.&lt;br /&gt;11) If Page has Some Links, than how much is the Max and Min Limit for that.&lt;br /&gt;12) Test for Installing Internet Explorer 6 with Norton Protected &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;"&gt;Recycle &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;"&gt;Bin&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; enabled.&lt;br /&gt;13) Is it working with the Un-installation Process?&lt;br /&gt;14) Last but not the least test for the Security System for the IE 6.0&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Where you involve in testing life cycle, what type of test you perform?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– Normally test engineers concerned from entire test life cycle i.e, test plan, test case preparation, execution, reporting. Generally system testing, regression testing, adhoc testing etc.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is Testing environment in your company, means how testing process start?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– testing process is going as follows&lt;br /&gt;Quality assurance unit&lt;br /&gt;Quality assurance manager&lt;br /&gt;Test lead&lt;br /&gt;Test engineer&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Who prepares the use cases?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– In Any company apart from the small company Business analyst prepares the use cases. But in small company Business analyst prepares along with team lead.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What methods have you used to develop test cases?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– Usually test engineers uses 4 types of methodologies&lt;br /&gt;1. Boundary value analysis&lt;br /&gt;2.Equivalence partition&lt;br /&gt;3.Error guessing&lt;br /&gt;4.Cause effect graphing&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Why we call it as a regression test nor retest?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– If we test whether defect is closed or not i.e Retesting But here we are checking the impact also regression means repeated times&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;54. Is automated testing better than manual testing. If so, why?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– &lt;b style=""&gt;Automated testing&lt;/b&gt; and &lt;b style=""&gt;manual testing&lt;/b&gt; have there own advantages as well as disadvantages&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Advantages&lt;/b&gt;: It boost the efficiency of testing process speed in process&lt;br /&gt;reliable&lt;br /&gt;Flexible&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Disadvantage’s&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Tools should have compatibility with our development or deployment tools need lot of time at first If the necessities are changing endlessly then Automation is not suitable&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Manual&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;: If the requirements are changing endlessly Manual is suitable Once the build is stable with manual testing then only we go 4 automation&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Disadvantages&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;Time Consuming&lt;br /&gt;We can not do some type of testing manually&lt;br /&gt;E.g Performances&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the exact difference between a product and a project? Give an example?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– Project Developed for specific client necessities are defined by client. Product developed for market necessities are defined by company itself by conducting market survey&lt;br /&gt;Example&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Project&lt;/b&gt;: the shirt which we are interested stitching with tailor as per our specifications is project&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Product&lt;/b&gt;: Example is “Ready made Shirt” where the particular company will imagine particular measurements they made the product&lt;br /&gt;Mainframes is a product&lt;br /&gt;Product has many mo of versions&lt;br /&gt;but project has fewer versions i.e depends upon change request and enhancements&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Define Brain Storming and Cause Effect Graphing? With example. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: – &lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Brain Storming&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;A learning technique involving open group discussion intended to expand the range of available ideas.&lt;br /&gt;OR&lt;br /&gt;A meeting to generate creative ideas. At PEPSI Advertising, daily, weekly and bi-monthly brainstorming sessions are held by various work groups within the firm. Our monthly I-&lt;br /&gt;Power brainstorming meeting is attended by the entire agency staff.&lt;br /&gt;OR&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Brainstorming is a highly planned process to help make ideas. It is based on the principle that you cannot generate and calculate ideas at the same time. To use brainstorming, you must first gain agreement from the group to try brainstorming for a fixed interval (eg six minutes).&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;CEG :&lt;br /&gt;A testing technique that aids in selecting, in a systematic way, a high-yield set of test cases that logically relates causes to effects to produce test cases. It has a beneficial side effect in pointing out incompleteness and ambiguities in specifications.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Actually by using severity u should know which one u need to solve so what is the need of priority?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– I guess severity replicate the seriousness of the bug where as priority refers to which bug should rectify first. of course if the severity is high the same case is with priority in normal.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Severity decided by the tester where as priority decided by developers. Which one need to answer first knows through priority not with severity. How serious of the bug knows through severity.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Severity is nothing collision of that bug on the application. Priority is nothing but weight to resolve the bug yeah of course by looking severity we can judge but sometimes high severity bug doesn’t have high priority At the same time High priority bug don’t have high severity. So we need both severity and priority&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What do u do if the bug that you bring into being is not accepted by the developer and he is saying its not reproducible. Note: The developer is in the on site location ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– once again we will check that condition with all causes. Then we will attach screen shots with strong reasons. Then we will clarify to the project manager and also clarify to the client when they contact us&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Sometimes bug is not reproducible it is because of different environment suppose development team using other environment and you are using different environment at this situation there is chance of bug not reproducing. At this situation please check the environment in the base line documents that is functional documents if the environment which we r using is correct we will raise it as defect We will take screen shots and sends them with test procedure also.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the difference between three tier and two tier application?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:– Client server is a 2-tier application. In this, front end or client is connected to&lt;br /&gt;‘Data base server’ through ‘Data Source Name, front end is the monitoring level.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Web based architecture is a 3-tier application. In this, browser is connected to web server through TCP/IP and web server is connected to Data base server, browser is the monitoring level. In general, Black box testers are concentrating on monitoring level of any type of application.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;All the client server applications are 2 tier architectures.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Here in these architecture, all the “Business Logic” is stored in clients and “Data” is stored in Servers. So if user request anything, business logic will b performed at client, and the data is retrieved from Server(DB Server). Here the problem is, if any business logic changes, then we&lt;br /&gt;need to change the logic at each any every client. The best ex: is take a super market, i have branches in the city. At each branch i have clients, so business logic is stored in clients, but the actual data is store in servers.If assume i want to give some discount on some items, so i&lt;br /&gt;need to change the business logic. For this i need to goto each branch and need to change the business logic at each client. This the disadvantage of Client/Server architecture.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;So 3-tier architecture came into picture:&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Here Business Logic is stored in one Server, and all the clients are dumb terminals. If user requests anything the request first sent to server, the server will bring the data from DB Sever and send it to clients. This is the flow for 3-tier architecture.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Assume for the above. Ex. if i want to give some discount, all my business logic is there in Server. So i need to change at one place, not at each client. This is the main advantage of 3-tier architecture.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-5204421257717535673?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/5204421257717535673/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=5204421257717535673' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/5204421257717535673'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/5204421257717535673'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/software-testing-interview-questions-8.html' title='Software Testing Interview Questions 8'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-3224261255173810107</id><published>2008-10-06T03:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:58:02.618-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Testing Interview Question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='testing interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Manual Testing Interview Questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Test Director'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Qa Testing Interview Questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Qa Testing Interview'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Software Testing Interview Questions'/><title type='text'>Software Testing Interview Questions 9</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. If we have no SRS, BRS but we have test cases does you execute the test cases blindly or do you follow any other process?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Test case would have detail steps of what the application is made-up to do. SO&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]--&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;!--[endif]--&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;1) &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Functionality of application is acknowledged. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;2) In addition you can refer to Backend, I mean glance into the &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static; padding-bottom: 1px; background-color: transparent;"&gt;Database&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. To gain more information of the &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;"&gt;application&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;How to execute test case?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — There are two ways &lt;b&gt;to execute test case&lt;/b&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;1. Manual Runner Tool for manual execution and updating of test status.&lt;br /&gt;2. Automated test case execution by specifying Host name and other automation pertaining details.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;33. Difference between re testing and regression testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — Retesting: –&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Re-execution of test cases on same application put up with different input values is retesting.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Regression Testing: &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Re-execution of test cases on updated form of build is called regression testing…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the difference between bug log and defect tracking?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A; — Bug log is a document which keep the information of the bug where as bug tracking is the process.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Who will change the Bug Status as Differed?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Bug will be in open position while &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;"&gt;developer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is working on it Fixed after developer completes his work if it is not fixed correctly the tester puts it in reopen After fixing the bug properly it is in closed state.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is smoke testing and user interface testing ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — ST:&lt;br /&gt;Smoke testing is non-exhaustive software testing, as pertaining that the most critical functions of a program work, but not worry with higher details. The term comes to software testing from a similarly basic type of hardware testing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;UIT:&lt;br /&gt;I did a bit or R n D on this…. some says it’s nothing but Usability testing. Testing to find out the simplicity with which a user can learn to work, input, and interpret outputs of a system or component.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Smoke testing is nothing but to make sure whether essential functionality of the build is stable or not?&lt;br /&gt;I.e. if it possesses 70% of the functionality we say build is stable.&lt;br /&gt;User interface testing: We verify all the fields whether they are existing or not as per the format we check spelling graphic font sizes the whole thing in the window present or not|&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is bug, defect, issue and error?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — &lt;b style=""&gt;Bug&lt;/b&gt;: — Bug is recognized by the tester.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Defect&lt;/b&gt;:– Whenever the project is received for the analysis phase ,may be some requirement neglected to get or know most of the time Defect itself come with the project (when it comes).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Issue&lt;/b&gt;: — Client site error most of the time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Error&lt;/b&gt;: — When something is happened wrong in the project from the development side i.e. called as the error, most of the time this knows by the developer.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Bug: a fault or defect in a system or machine &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Defect: an imperfection in a device or machine;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Issue: An issue is a major problem that will slow down the development of the project and cannot be determined by the project manager and project team without outside help&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Error:&lt;br /&gt;Error is the deviation of a measurement, observation, or calculation from the truth&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the diff b/w functional testing and integration testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — functional testing is testing the complete functionality of the system or the application whether it is meeting the functional terms&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Integration testing means testing the functionality of integrated module when two different modules are integrated for this we use top-down approach and bottom up approach&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What sort of testing you make in organization while you do System Testing, give clearly?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — Functional testing&lt;br /&gt;User interface testing&lt;br /&gt;Usability testing&lt;br /&gt;Compatibility testing&lt;br /&gt;Model based testing&lt;br /&gt;Error exit testing&lt;br /&gt;User help testing&lt;br /&gt;Security testing&lt;br /&gt;Capacity testing&lt;br /&gt;Performance testing&lt;br /&gt;Sanity testing&lt;br /&gt;Regression testing&lt;br /&gt;Reliability testing&lt;br /&gt;Recovery testing&lt;br /&gt;Installation testing&lt;br /&gt;Maintenance testing&lt;br /&gt;Accessibility testing, including compliance with:&lt;br /&gt;Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990&lt;br /&gt;Section 508 Amendment to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973&lt;br /&gt;Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) of the World Wide Web&lt;br /&gt;Consortium (W3C)&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the major use of prepare Traceability matrix and clarify the real time usage?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — A traceability matrix is formed by associating necessities with the work products that satisfy them. Tests are linked with the requirements on which they are based and the product tested to assemble the requirement. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A traceability matrix is a statement from the requirements database or repository.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. How can you do the following 1) Usability testing 2) scalability Testing &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:–&lt;br /&gt;UT:&lt;br /&gt;Testing the simplicity with which users can learn and use a product.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;ST:&lt;br /&gt;It’s a Web Testing allows web site ability development.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;PT:&lt;br /&gt;Testing to find out whether the system/software meets the specified portability requirements.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What does you mean by Positive and Negative testing &amp;amp; what is the difference between them. Can anyone explain with an example?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — &lt;b style=""&gt;Positive Testing&lt;/b&gt;: Testing the application functionality with suitable inputs and confirming that output is right&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Negative testing&lt;/b&gt;: Testing the application functionality with unacceptable inputs and verifying the output.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Difference is nothing but how the application perform when we enter some unacceptable inputs suppose if it accepts invalid input the application Functionality is wrong&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Positive test: testing meant to show that s/w work i.e. with applicable inputs. This is also called as “test to pass’&lt;br /&gt;Negative testing: testing aimed at showing s/w doesn’t work. Which is also know as ‘test to fail” BVA is the best example of -ve testing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is change request, how u use it?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — Change Request is an attribute or part of Defect Life Cycle.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Now when you as a tester find a defect and report to your DL…he in turn informs the Development Team.&lt;br /&gt;The DT says it’s not a defect it’s an extra implementation or says not part of requirement. Its newscast has to pay.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Here the status in your defect report would be Change Request&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;I think change request controlled by change request control board (CCB). If any changes required by client after we start the project, it has to come thru that CCB and they have to approve it. CCB got full rights to accept or reject based on the project schedule and cost.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q.

Difference between re testing and regression testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — Retesting: –&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Re-execution of test cases on same application put up with different input values is retesting.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Regression Testing: &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Re-execution of test cases on updated form of build is called regression testing…&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the difference between bug log and defect tracking?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A; — Bug log is a document which keep the information of the bug where as bug tracking is the process.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Who will change the Bug Status as Differed?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Bug will be in open position while &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;"&gt;developer&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is working on it Fixed after developer completes his work if it is not fixed correctly the tester puts it in reopen After fixing the bug properly it is in closed state.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is smoke testing and user interface testing ?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — ST:&lt;br /&gt;Smoke testing is non-exhaustive software testing, as pertaining that the most critical functions of a program work, but not worry with higher details. The term comes to software testing from a similarly basic type of hardware testing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;UIT:&lt;br /&gt;I did a bit or R n D on this…. some says it’s nothing but Usability testing. Testing to find out the simplicity with which a user can learn to work, input, and interpret outputs of a system or component.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Smoke testing is nothing but to make sure whether essential functionality of the build is stable or not?&lt;br /&gt;I.e. if it possesses 70% of the functionality we say build is stable.&lt;br /&gt;User interface testing: We verify all the fields whether they are existing or not as per the format we check spelling graphic font sizes the whole thing in the window present or not|&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is bug, defect, issue and error?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — &lt;b style=""&gt;Bug&lt;/b&gt;: — Bug is recognized by the tester.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Defect&lt;/b&gt;:– Whenever the project is received for the analysis phase ,may be some requirement neglected to get or know most of the time Defect itself come with the project (when it comes).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Issue&lt;/b&gt;: — Client site error most of the time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Error&lt;/b&gt;: — When something is happened wrong in the project from the development side i.e. called as the error, most of the time this knows by the developer.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Bug: a fault or defect in a system or machine &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Defect: an imperfection in a device or machine;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Issue: An issue is a major problem that will slow down the development of the project and cannot be determined by the project manager and project team without outside help&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Error:&lt;br /&gt;Error is the deviation of a measurement, observation, or calculation from the truth&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the diff b/w functional testing and integration testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — functional testing is testing the complete functionality of the system or the application whether it is meeting the functional terms&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Integration testing means testing the functionality of integrated module when two different modules are integrated for this we use top-down approach and bottom up approach&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What sort of testing you make in organization while you do System Testing, give clearly?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — Functional testing&lt;br /&gt;User interface testing&lt;br /&gt;Usability testing&lt;br /&gt;Compatibility testing&lt;br /&gt;Model based testing&lt;br /&gt;Error exit testing&lt;br /&gt;User help testing&lt;br /&gt;Security testing&lt;br /&gt;Capacity testing&lt;br /&gt;Performance testing&lt;br /&gt;Sanity testing&lt;br /&gt;Regression testing&lt;br /&gt;Reliability testing&lt;br /&gt;Recovery testing&lt;br /&gt;Installation testing&lt;br /&gt;Maintenance testing&lt;br /&gt;Accessibility testing, including compliance with:&lt;br /&gt;Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990&lt;br /&gt;Section 508 Amendment to the Rehabilitation Act of 1973&lt;br /&gt;Web Accessibility Initiative (WAI) of the World Wide Web&lt;br /&gt;Consortium (W3C)&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the major use of prepare Traceability matrix and clarify the real time usage?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — A traceability matrix is formed by associating necessities with the work products that satisfy them. Tests are linked with the requirements on which they are based and the product tested to assemble the requirement. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A traceability matrix is a statement from the requirements database or repository.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. How can you do the following 1) Usability testing 2) scalability Testing &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A:–&lt;br /&gt;UT:&lt;br /&gt;Testing the simplicity with which users can learn and use a product.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;ST:&lt;br /&gt;It’s a Web Testing allows web site ability development.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;PT:&lt;br /&gt;Testing to find out whether the system/software meets the specified portability requirements.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What does you mean by Positive and Negative testing &amp;amp; what is the difference between them. Can anyone explain with an example?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — &lt;b style=""&gt;Positive Testing&lt;/b&gt;: Testing the application functionality with suitable inputs and confirming that output is right&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;Negative testing&lt;/b&gt;: Testing the application functionality with unacceptable inputs and verifying the output.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Difference is nothing but how the application perform when we enter some unacceptable inputs suppose if it accepts invalid input the application Functionality is wrong&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Positive test: testing meant to show that s/w work i.e. with applicable inputs. This is also called as “test to pass’&lt;br /&gt;Negative testing: testing aimed at showing s/w doesn’t work. Which is also know as ‘test to fail” BVA is the best example of -ve testing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is change request, how u use it?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — Change Request is an attribute or part of Defect Life Cycle.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Now when you as a tester find a defect and report to your DL…he in turn informs the Development Team.&lt;br /&gt;The DT says it’s not a defect it’s an extra implementation or says not part of requirement. Its newscast has to pay.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Here the status in your defect report would be Change Request&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;I think change request controlled by change request control board (CCB). If any changes required by client after we start the project, it has to come thru that CCB and they have to approve it. CCB got full rights to accept or reject based on the project schedule and cost.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is risk analysis, what type of risk analysis u did in u r project?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: — Risk Analysis:&lt;br /&gt;A systematic use of accessible information to decide how frequently specified events and unspecified events may happen and the magnitude of their likely consequences4&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-7881780781655427255?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/7881780781655427255/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=7881780781655427255' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/7881780781655427255'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/7881780781655427255'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/software-testing-interview-questions-9.html' title='Software Testing Interview Questions 9'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-8667221325052596983</id><published>2008-10-06T03:47:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:48:43.148-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='php interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='PHP Interview'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='PHP Interview Question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='PHP Questions'/><title type='text'>PHP Interview Questions</title><content type='html'>&lt;b style=""&gt;Note: Click on Link to open/visit that Page&lt;/b&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;PHP Interview Questions 1&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;PHP Interview Questions 2&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;"&gt;PHP Interview Questions 3&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-weight: bold;

What is deferred status in defect life cycle?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Deferred status means the developer accepted the bug, but it is planned to correct in the next build&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is smoke test?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A; — Testing the application whether it’s performing its fundamental functionality correctly or not, so that the test team can go forward with the application.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Do you use any automation tool for smoke testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: - Absolutely can use.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is Verification and validation?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Verification is static. No code is executed. Say, analysis of requirements etc. Validation is dynamic. Code is executed with scenarios present in test cases.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Explain test plan and its contents?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Test plan is a document which contains the scope for testing the application and what to be tested, when to be tested and who to test.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Advantages of automation over manual testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Time, resource and Money&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is ADhoc testing?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Doing something which is not planned.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is mean by release notes?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — It’s a document released beside the product which give details about the product. It also contains about the bugs that are in deferred status.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. Scalability testing comes under in which tool?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Scalability testing comes under performance testing. Load testing, scalability testing both are same.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the difference between Bug and Defect?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — Bug: Difference from the expected result. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Defect: Problem in algorithm leads to failure.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A Mistake in code is called Error.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Due to Error in coding, test engineers are getting mismatches in application is called defect.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;If defect accepted by development team to solve is called Bug.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is hot fix?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — A hot fix is a solitary, collective package that contains one or more files that are used to tackle a problem in a software product. Usually, hot fixes are made to address a exact customer circumstances and may not be spread outside the customer organization.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Bug found at the customer place which has high priority.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the difference between functional test cases and compatibility test cases?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: —In Compatibility we have no Test Cases. Like we are Testing an application in different Hardware and software.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is Acid Testing??&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — ACID Means:&lt;br /&gt;ACID testing is related to testing a transaction.&lt;br /&gt;A-Atomicity&lt;br /&gt;C-Consistent&lt;br /&gt;I-Isolation&lt;br /&gt;D-Durable&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Mostly this will be done database testing.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q. What is the main use of set up a traceability matrix?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: — To Cross confirm the ready test cases and test scripts with user requirements.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;To observe the changes, enhance occurred during the development of the project.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Traceability matrix is arranged in order to cross check the test cases planned against each requirement, hence giving an prospect to confirm that all the necessities are covered in testing the application.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-4182369641940157170?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/4182369641940157170/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=4182369641940157170' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/4182369641940157170'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/4182369641940157170'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/software-testing-interview-question-10.html' title='Software Testing Interview Question 10'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-3474201131095099245</id><published>2008-10-06T03:39:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:43:28.168-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Testing Interview Question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='testing interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Manual Testing Interview Questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Test Director'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Qa Testing Interview Questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Qa Testing Interview'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Software Testing Interview Questions'/><title type='text'>Software Testing Interview Question 11</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q Can you provide me the correct answer for Test Bug?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The idea of testing is to expose defects/Bugs. A defect/BUG is a difference from a desired product characteristic. Two categories of defects/Bugs are- Variance from product specifications- Variance from customer/user anticipation.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Q What is the ONE major factor of 'test case'?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Test case hold the elements like; test case no, test case explanation, expected result, actual result, Status, remark.

This facilitates more Vusers (Virtual user) &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;to be run per generator. If the Vuser is run as a process, the same driver program is laden into memory for each Vuser, thus taking up a huge amount of memory. This restrict the number of Vusers that can be run on a single machine/application&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Explain relation in Response Time and Throughput? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The Throughput graph demonstrates the sum of data in bytes that the Vusers received from the &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;"&gt;server&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; in a second. When we evaluate this with the transaction response time, we will observe that as throughput reduces, the response time also reduces. In the same way, the max out throughput and highest response time would happen approximately at the same.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;How do you recognize the performance bottlenecks? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Performance Bottlenecks can be identified by using monitors. These monitors might be application server monitors, web server monitors, database server monitors and network &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 13px; position: static;"&gt;monitors&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. They facilitate in exploring the concerned area in our scenario which causes amplified response time. The measurements made are usually performance response time, throughput, hits/sec, network delay graphs, etc.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;h2 style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;How did you locate web server concerned issues? »&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/h2&gt;  &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p style="text-align: justify;"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Using Web resource monitors we can discover the performance of web servers. Using these monitors we can examine throughput on the web server, amount of hits per second that happen during scenario, the number of http reactions per second, and the amount of downloaded pages per second.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-5182444393359781140?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/5182444393359781140/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=5182444393359781140' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/5182444393359781140'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/5182444393359781140'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/loadrunner-interview-questions.html' title='Loadrunner Interview Questions'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-3983826029810469795</id><published>2008-10-06T03:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:27:13.938-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Perl Interview Questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Perl Questions'/><title type='text'>Perl Interview Questions</title><content type='html'>&lt;h3 class="post-title entry-title"&gt; &lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;div class="post-body entry-content"&gt; &lt;p&gt;1) What are the two different types of data perl handles?&lt;br /&gt;Perl handles two types of data they are&lt;br /&gt;(i) Scalar Variables and&lt;br /&gt;(ii) Lists&lt;br /&gt;Scalar variables hold a single data item whereas lists hold multiple data items.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;2) What are scalar variables?&lt;br /&gt;Scalar variables are what many programming languages refer to as simple variables. They hold a single data item, a number, a string, or a perl reference. Scalars are called scalars to differentiate them from constructs that can hold more than one item, like arrays.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;3) Explain about lists?&lt;br /&gt;A list is a construct that associates data elements together and you can specify a list by enclosing those elements in parenthesis and separating them with commas. They could themselves be arrays, hashes or even other lists. Lists do not have a specific list data type.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;4) Name all the prefix dereferencer in perl?&lt;br /&gt;The symbol that starts all scalar variables is called a prefix dereferencer. The different types of dereferencer are.&lt;br /&gt;(i) $-Scalar variables&lt;br /&gt;(ii) %-Hash variables&lt;br /&gt;(iii) @-arrays&lt;br /&gt;(iv) &amp;amp;-subroutines&lt;br /&gt;(v) Type globs-*myvar stands for @myvar, %myvar.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;5) Explain about an ivalue?&lt;br /&gt;An ivalue is an item that can serve as the target of an assignment. The term I value originally meant a “left value”, which is to say a value that appears on the left. An ivalue usually represents a data space in memory and you can store data using the ivalues name. Any variable can serve as an ivalue.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;6) How does a “grep” function perform?&lt;br /&gt;Grep returns the number of lines the expression is true. Grep returns a sublist of a list for which a specific criterion is true. This function often involves pattern matching. It modifies the elements in the original list.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;7)   Explain about Typeglobs?&lt;br /&gt;Type globs are another integral type in perl. A typeglob`s prefix derefrencer is *, which is also the wild card character because you can use typeglobs to create an alias for all types associated with a particular name. All kinds of manipulations are possible with typeglobs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;8) Is there any way to add two arrays together?&lt;br /&gt;Of course you can add two arrays together by using push function. The push function adds a value or values to the end of an array. The push function pushes the values of list onto the end of the array. Length of an array can be increased by the length of list.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;9) How to use the command shift?&lt;br /&gt;Shift array function shifts off the first value of the array and returns it, thereby shortening the array by one element and moving everything from one place to the left. If you don’t specify an array to shift, shift uses @ ARGV, the array of command line arguments passed to the script or the array named @-.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;10)  What exactly is grooving and shortening of the array?&lt;br /&gt;You can change the number of elements in an array simply by changing the value of the last index of/in the array $#array. In fact, if you simply refer to a non existent element in an array perl extends the array as needed, creating new elements. It also includes new elements in its array.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;11) What are the three ways to empty an array?&lt;br /&gt;The three different ways to empty an array are as follows&lt;br /&gt;1) You can empty an array by setting its length to a negative number.&lt;br /&gt;2) Another way of empting an array is to assign the null list ().&lt;br /&gt;3)  Try to clear an array by setting it to undef, but be aware when you set to undef.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;12)  How do you work with array slices&lt;br /&gt;An array slice is a section of an array that acts like a list, and you indicate what elements to put into the slice by using multiple array indexes in square brackets. By specifying the range operator you can also specify a slice.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;13)  What is meant by splicing arrays explain in context of list and scalar.&lt;br /&gt;Splicing an array means adding elements from a list to that array, possibly replacing elements now in the array. In list context, the splice function returns the elements removed from the array. In scalar context, the splice function returns the last element removed.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;14)  What are the different types of perl operators?&lt;br /&gt;There are four different types of perl operators they are&lt;br /&gt;(i) Unary operator like the not operator&lt;br /&gt;(ii) Binary operator like the addition operator&lt;br /&gt;(iii) Tertiary operator like the conditional operator&lt;br /&gt;(iv) List operator like the print operator&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;15)  Which has the highest precedence, List or Terms? Explain?&lt;br /&gt;Terms have the highest precedence in perl. Terms include variables, quotes, expressions in parenthesis etc. List operators have the same level of precedence as terms. Specifically, these operators have very strong left word precedence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;16)  What is a short circuit operator?&lt;br /&gt;The C-Style operator, ll, performs a logical (or) operation and you can use it to tie logical clauses together, returning an overall value of true if either clause is true. This operator is called a short-circuit operator because if the left operand is true the right operand is not checked or evaluated.&lt;/p&gt; &lt;p&gt;17)  What are the different forms of goto in perl? Explain?&lt;br /&gt;The three forms of goto are as follows. They are&lt;br /&gt;(i) Goto label&lt;br /&gt;(ii) Goto name&lt;br /&gt;(iii) Goto expr&lt;br /&gt;The first form, goto LABEL, transfers execution to the statement labeled LABEL. The second form, goto EXPR, expects EXPR to evaluate to a label. The last form goto &amp;amp;name is used with subroutines. This goto statement is used only when there is a necessity as it can create havoc in a program.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;18)  What are the different types of eval statements?&lt;br /&gt;There are two different types of eval statements they are eval EXPR and eval BLOCK. Eval EXPR executes an expression and eval BLOCK executes BLOCK. Eval Block executes an entire block, BLOCK. First one is used when you want your code passed in the expression and the second one is used to parse the code in the block.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;19)  Determine the difference between my and local?&lt;br /&gt;The fundamental difference between my and local is that my creates a new variable, whereas local saves a copy of an existing variable.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;20)  Explain about returning values from subroutines (functions)?&lt;br /&gt;The return value of the subroutine is the value of the last expression evaluated or you can explicitly use a return statement to exit the subroutine specifying the return value. That return value is evaluated in the appropriate content depending on the content of the subroutine call.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-3983826029810469795?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/3983826029810469795/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=3983826029810469795' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/3983826029810469795'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/3983826029810469795'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/perl-interview-questions.html' title='Perl Interview Questions'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-3168323633405064707</id><published>2008-10-06T03:24:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:25:55.847-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions with answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interview questions on core java'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions and answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corejava interview questions'/><title type='text'>Core Java Interview Questions Part-1</title><content type='html'>&lt;h3 class="post-title entry-title"&gt; &lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;div class="post-body entry-content"&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:worddocument&gt;   &lt;w:view&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:punctuationkerning/&gt;   &lt;w:validateagainstschemas/&gt;   &lt;w:saveifxmlinvalid&gt;false&lt;/w:SaveIfXMLInvalid&gt;   &lt;w:ignoremixedcontent&gt;false&lt;/w:IgnoreMixedContent&gt;   &lt;w:alwaysshowplaceholdertext&gt;false&lt;/w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText&gt;   &lt;w:compatibility&gt;    &lt;w:breakwrappedtables/&gt;    &lt;w:snaptogridincell/&gt;    &lt;w:wraptextwithpunct/&gt;    &lt;w:useasianbreakrules/&gt;    &lt;w:dontgrowautofit/&gt;   &lt;/w:Compatibility&gt;   &lt;w:browserlevel&gt;MicrosoftInternetExplorer4&lt;/w:BrowserLevel&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:latentstyles deflockedstate="false" latentstylecount="156"&gt;  &lt;/w:LatentStyles&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 10]&gt; &lt;style&gt;  /* Style Definitions */  table.MsoNormalTable  {mso-style-name:"Table Normal";  mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0;  mso-tstyle-colband-size:0;  mso-style-noshow:yes;  mso-style-parent:"";  mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;  mso-para-margin:0in;  mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt;  mso-pagination:widow-orphan;  font-size:10.0pt;  font-family:"Times New Roman";  mso-ansi-language:#0400;  mso-fareast-language:#0400;  mso-bidi-language:#0400;} &lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;1 Q &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Why threads block or enters to waiting state on I/O?

  &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Subclass of Observable class maintain a list of observers. Whenever an Observable object is updated, it invokes the update() method of each of its observers to notify the observers that it has a changed state. An observer is any object that implements the interface Observer. &lt;b&gt; &lt;/b&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;4 Q What is synchronization   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Synchronization is the ability to control the access of multiple threads to shared resources. Synchronization stops multithreading. With synchronization , at a time only one thread will be able to access a shared resource. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;5 Q What is List interface ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;List is an ordered collection of objects. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;6 Q What is a Vector &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Vector is a grow able array of objects. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;7 Q What is the difference between yield() and sleep()?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;When a object invokes yield() it returns to ready state. But when an object invokes sleep() method enters to not ready state. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;8 Q What are Wrapper Classes ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;They are wrappers to primitive data types. They allow us to access primitives as objects. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;9 Q Can we call finalize() method ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Yes. Nobody will stop us to call any method , if it is accessible in our class. But a garbage collector cannot call an object's finalize method if that object is reachable. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;10 Q &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;What is the difference between  time slicing and  preemptive scheduling ?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;In preemptive scheduling, highest priority task continues execution till it enters a not running state or a higher priority task comes into existence. In time slicing, the task continues its execution for a predefined period of time and reenters the pool of ready tasks. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;11 Q What is the initial state of a thread when it is created and started? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The thread is in ready state. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;12 Q Can we declare an anonymous class as both extending a class and implementing an interface? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;No. An anonymous class can extend a class or implement an interface, but it cannot be declared to do both&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;13 Q What are the differences between boolean &amp;amp; operator and  &amp;amp; operator&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: Verdana;"&gt;When an expression containing the &amp;amp; operator is evaluated, both operands are evaluated. And the &amp;amp; operator is applied to the operand. When an expression containing &amp;amp;&amp;amp; operator is evaluated, the first operand is evaluated. If the first operand returns a value of true then only the second operand is evaluated otherwise the second part will not get executed. &amp;amp;&amp;amp; is also called short cut and.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-3168323633405064707?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/3168323633405064707/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=3168323633405064707' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/3168323633405064707'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/3168323633405064707'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/core-java-interview-questions-part-1.html' title='Core Java Interview Questions Part-1'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-4940262285674300767</id><published>2008-10-06T03:23:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:24:07.454-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions with answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interview questions on core java'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions and answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corejava interview questions'/><title type='text'>Core Java Interview Questions Part-2</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;14 Q What is the use of the finally block? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Finally is the block of code that executes always.

Abstract class can have private or protected methods and variables and only public methods and variables are allowed in interface. We can implement more than one interface , but we can extend only one abstract class. Interfaces provides loose coupling where as abstract class provides tight coupling. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;18 Q What is the difference between synchronized block and synchronized method ?   &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;Synchronized blocks place locks for the specified block where as synchronized methods place locks for the entire method. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;19 Q How can you force garbage collection in java?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;You cannot force Garbage Collection, but you can request for it by calling the method System.gc(). But it doesn't mean that Garbage Collection will start immediately. The garbage collection is a low priority thread of JVM.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;20 Q How can you call a constructor from another constructor ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;By using this() reference. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;21 Q How can you call the constructor of super class ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;By using super() syntax. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;22 Q What's the difference between normal methods and constructors?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Constructors must have the same name of the class and can not have a return type. They are called only once, while regular methods can be called whenever required.

It is also possible for programs to create objects that are not subject to garbage collection.

Checked exceptions and Unchecked exceptions. Any exception that is is derived from Throwable and Exception is called checked exception except RuntimeException and its sub classes. The compiler will check whether the exception is caught or not at compile time. We need to catch the checked exception or declare in the throws clause. Any exception that is derived from Error and RuntimeException is called unchecked exception. We don't need to explicitly catch a unchecked exception.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;34 Q Can we catch an error in our java program ?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Yes. We can . We can catch anything that is derived from Throwable. Since Error is a sub class of Throwable we can catch an error also. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;35 Q What is thread priority? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Thread Priority is an integer value that identifies the relative order in which it should be executed with respect to others. The thread priority values ranging from 1- 10 and the default value is 5. But if a thread have higher priority doesn't means that it will execute first. The thread scheduling depends on the OS.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;36 Q How many times may an object's finalize() method be invoked by the garbage collector? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Only once.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;37 Q What is the difference between a continue statement and a break statement?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Break statement results in the immediate termination of the statement to which it applies (switch, for, do, or while). A continue statement is used to end the current loop iteration and return control to the loop statement. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;38 Q What must a class do to implement an interface? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;It must identify the interface in its implements clause.

It is declared with the modifier abstract. We cannot create objects of the abstract class.

If any threads are waiting on this object, one of them is chosen to be awakened. The choice is arbitrary and occurs at the discretion of the implementation. notifyAll Wakes up all threads that are waiting on this object's monitor. A thread waits on an object's monitor by calling one of the wait methods.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;41 Q What does wait method do ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;It causes current thread to wait until either another thread invokes notify or notifyAll method of the current object, or a specified amount of time has elapsed.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;42 Q What are the different states of a thread ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The different thread states are ready, running, waiting and dead. 43 Q What is the difference between static and non static inner class ? A &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A non-static inner class can have an object instances that are associated with instances of the class's outer class. A static inner class can not have any object instances. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;44 Q What is the difference between String and StringBuffer class ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Strings are immutable (constant), their values cannot be changed after they are created.

They are associated with the class. In order to access a static we don't need objects. We can directly access static methods and variable by calling classname.variablename.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;50 Q Why we cannot override static methods? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Static means they are associated with a class. In static methods , the binding mechanism is static binding. So it must be available at the compile time.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;51 Q What is the difference between static and non static variables ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A static variable is associated with the class as a whole rather than with specific instances of a class. There will be only one value for static variable for all instances of that class. Non-static variables take on unique values with each object instance. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;52 Q When does a compiler supplies a default constructor for a class? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;If there is no other constructor exist in a class, the compiler will supply a default constructor. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;53 Q What are the restrictions placed on overriding a method ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The overridden method have the exact signature of the super class method, including the return type. The access specified cannot be less restrictive than the super class method. We cannot throw any new exceptions in overridden method. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;54 Q What are the restrictions placed on overloading a method ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Overloading methods must differ in their parameter list, or number of parameters. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;55 Q What is casting ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Casting means converting one type to another. There are mainly two types of casting. Casting between primitive types and casting between object references. Casting between primitive numeric types is used to convert larger data types to smaller data types. Casting between object references is used to refer to an object by a compatible class, interface, or array type reference. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;56 Q What is the difference between == and equals ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The equals method can be considered to perform a deep comparison of the value of an object, whereas the == operator performs a shallow comparison. If we are not overriding the equals method both will give the same result. == will is used to compare the object references. It is used to check whether two objects are points to the same reference.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;57 Q What is a void return type ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A void indicates that the method will not return anything.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;58 Q What will happen if an exception is not caught ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;An uncaught exception results in the uncaughtException() method of the thread's ThreadGroup, which results in the termination of the program.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;59 Q What are the different ways in which a thread can enter into waiting state? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;There are three ways for a thread to enter into waiting state. By invoking its sleep() method, by blocking on I/O, by unsuccessfully attempting to acquire an object's lock, or by invoking an object's wait() method. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;60 Q What is a ResourceBundle class?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The ResourceBundle class is used to store locale-specific resources that can be loaded by a program to create the program's appearance to the particular locale in which it is being run.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-8994837901256104261?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/8994837901256104261/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=8994837901256104261' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/8994837901256104261'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/8994837901256104261'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/core-java-interview-questions-part-4.html' title='Core Java Interview Questions Part-4'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-6314491872059480066</id><published>2008-10-06T03:19:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:20:32.792-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions with answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interview questions on core java'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions and answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corejava interview questions'/><title type='text'>Core Java Interview Questions Part-5</title><content type='html'>&lt;h3 class="post-title entry-title"&gt; &lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;div class="post-body entry-content"&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:worddocument&gt;   &lt;w:view&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:punctuationkerning/&gt;   &lt;w:validateagainstschemas/&gt;   &lt;w:saveifxmlinvalid&gt;false&lt;/w:SaveIfXMLInvalid&gt;   &lt;w:ignoremixedcontent&gt;false&lt;/w:IgnoreMixedContent&gt;   &lt;w:alwaysshowplaceholdertext&gt;false&lt;/w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText&gt;   &lt;w:compatibility&gt;    &lt;w:breakwrappedtables/&gt;    &lt;w:snaptogridincell/&gt;    &lt;w:wraptextwithpunct/&gt;    &lt;w:useasianbreakrules/&gt;    &lt;w:dontgrowautofit/&gt;   &lt;/w:Compatibility&gt;   &lt;w:browserlevel&gt;MicrosoftInternetExplorer4&lt;/w:BrowserLevel&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:latentstyles deflockedstate="false" latentstylecount="156"&gt;  &lt;/w:LatentStyles&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 10]&gt; &lt;style&gt;  /* Style Definitions */  table.MsoNormalTable  {mso-style-name:"Table Normal";  mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0;  mso-tstyle-colband-size:0;  mso-style-noshow:yes;  mso-style-parent:"";  mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;  mso-para-margin:0in;  mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt;  mso-pagination:widow-orphan;  font-size:10.0pt;  font-family:"Times New Roman";  mso-ansi-language:#0400;  mso-fareast-language:#0400;  mso-bidi-language:#0400;} &lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;61 Q What is numeric promotion? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Numeric promotion is the conversion of a smaller numeric type to a larger numeric type. In numerical promotion, byte, char, and short values are converted to int values. The int, long and float values are converted to the desired types if required.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;62 Q What is the difference between the prefix and postfix forms of the ++ operator? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The prefix form first performs the increment operation and then returns the value of the increment operation. The postfix form first returns the current value of the expression and then performs the increment operation on that value. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;63 Q What are synchronized methods and synchronized statements? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Synchronized methods are methods that are declared with the &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span style="color: green;"&gt;keyword&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; synchronized. thread executes a synchronized method only after it has acquired the lock for the method's object or class. Synchronized statements are similar to synchronized methods. It is a block of code declared with synchronized keyword. A synchronized statement can be executed only after a thread has acquired the lock for the object or class referenced in the synchronized statement.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;64 Q How can we create a thread?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A thread can be created by extending Thread class or by implementing Runnable interface. Then we need to override the method public void run(). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;65 Q What is the difference between a switch statement and an if statement? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;If statement is used to select from two alternatives. It uses a boolean expression to decide which alternative should be executed. The expression in if must be a boolean value. The switch statement is used to select from multiple alternatives. The case values must be promoted to an to int value. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;66 Q What is hashCode? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The hashcode of a Java Object is simply a number (32-bit signed int) that allows an object to be managed by a hash-based &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static; padding-bottom: 1px; background-color: transparent;"&gt;data &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="border-bottom: 1px solid blue; color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static; padding-bottom: 1px; background-color: transparent;"&gt;structure&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. A hashcode should be, equal for equal object (this is mandatory!) , fast to compute based on all or most of the internal state of an object, use all or most of the space of 32-bit integers in a fairly uniform way , and likely to be different even for objects that are very similar. If you are overriding hashCode you need to override equals method also.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;67 Q What is an I/O filter? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;An I/O filter is an object that reads from one stream and writes to another, usually altering the data in some way as it is passed from one stream to another.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;68 Q What is the difference between RandomAccessFile and File? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The File class contains information  the files and directories of the local file &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: green;"&gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;"&gt;system&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. The RandomAccessFile class contains  the methods needed to directly access data contained in any part of a file. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;69 Q What is final ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A final is a keyword in &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: green;"&gt;java&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. If final keyword is applied to a variable, then the variable will become a constant. If it applied to method, sub classes cannot override the method. If final keyword is applied to a class we cannot extend from that class.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;70 Q What is the difference among JVM Spec, JVM Implementation, JVM Runtime ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The JVM spec is the &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span style="color: green;"&gt;blueprint&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; for the JVM generated and owned by Sun. The JVM implementation is the actual implementation of the spec by a vendor and the JVM runtime is the actual running instance of a JVM implementation &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;71 Q How is the difference between thread and process? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A process runs in its own address space. No two processes share their address space. Threads will run in the same address space of the process that owns them.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;72 Q What is the difference between Vector and ArrayList ? &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Vector is synchronized, ArrayList is not. Vector is having a constructor to specify the incremental capacity. But ArrayList don't have. By default Vector grows by 100% but ArrayList grows by 50% only. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;73 Q What is the difference between Hashtable and HashMap ? &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Hashtable is synchronized . but HashMap is not synchronized. Hashtable does not allow null values , but HashMap allows null values.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;74 Q What are the access modifiers available in Java. &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Access modifier specify where a method or attribute can be used. Public is accessible from anywhere. Protected is accessible from the same class and its subclasses. Package/Default are accessible from the same package. Private is only accessible from within the class.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;75 Q Why java is said to be pass-by-value ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;When assigning an object to a variable, we are actually assigning the memory address of that object to the variable.

In numerical promotion, byte, char, and short values are converted to int values.

The postfix form first returns the current value of the expression and then performs the increment operation on that value. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;63 Q What are synchronized methods and synchronized statements? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Synchronized methods are methods that are declared with the &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span style="color: green;"&gt;keyword&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; synchronized. thread executes a synchronized method only after it has acquired the lock for the method's object or class. Synchronized statements are similar to synchronized methods. It is a block of code declared with synchronized keyword. A synchronized statement can be executed only after a thread has acquired the lock for the object or class referenced in the synchronized statement.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;64 Q How can we create a thread?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A thread can be created by extending Thread class or by implementing Runnable interface. Then we need to override the method public void run(). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;65 Q What is the difference between a switch statement and an if statement? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;If statement is used to select from two alternatives. It uses a boolean expression to decide which alternative should be executed. The expression in if must be a boolean value. The switch statement is used to select from multiple alternatives. The case values must be promoted to an to int value. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;66 Q What is hashCode? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The hashcode of a Java Object is simply a number (32-bit signed int) that allows an object to be managed by a hash-based data structure. A hashcode should be, equal for equal object (this is mandatory!) , fast to compute based on all or most of the internal state of an object, use all or most of the space of 32-bit integers in a fairly uniform way , and likely to be different even for objects that are very similar. If you are overriding hashCode you need to override equals method also.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;67 Q What is an I/O filter? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;An I/O filter is an object that reads from one stream and writes to another, usually altering the data in some way as it is passed from one stream to another.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;68 Q What is the difference between RandomAccessFile and File? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The File class contains information  the files and directories of the local file &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: green;"&gt;system&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. The RandomAccessFile class contains  the methods needed to directly access data contained in any part of a file. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;69 Q What is final ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A final is a keyword in &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;u&gt;&lt;span style="color: green;"&gt;java&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/u&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. If final keyword is applied to a variable, then the variable will become a constant. If it applied to method, sub classes cannot override the method. If final keyword is applied to a class we cannot extend from that class.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;70 Q What is the difference among JVM Spec, JVM Implementation, JVM Runtime ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The JVM spec is the &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span style="color: green;"&gt;blueprint&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; for the JVM generated and owned by Sun. The JVM implementation is the actual implementation of the spec by a vendor and the JVM runtime is the actual running instance of a JVM implementation &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;71 Q How is the difference between thread and process? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A process runs in its own address space. No two processes share their address space. Threads will run in the same address space of the process that owns them.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;72 Q What is the difference between Vector and ArrayList ? &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Vector is synchronized, ArrayList is not. Vector is having a constructor to specify the incremental capacity. But ArrayList don't have. By default Vector grows by 100% but ArrayList grows by 50% only. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;73 Q What is the difference between Hashtable and HashMap ? &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Hashtable is synchronized . but HashMap is not synchronized. Hashtable does not allow null values , but HashMap allows null values.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;74 Q What are the access modifiers available in Java. &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Access modifier specify where a method or attribute can be used. Public is accessible from anywhere. Protected is accessible from the same class and its subclasses. Package/Default are accessible from the same package. Private is only accessible from within the class.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;75 Q Why java is said to be pass-by-value ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;When assigning an object to a variable, we are actually assigning the memory address of that object to the variable. So the value passed is actually the memory location of the object. This results in object aliasing, meaning you can have many variables referring to the same object on the heap.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-7495483059663522754?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/7495483059663522754/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=7495483059663522754' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/7495483059663522754'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/7495483059663522754'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/core-java-interview-questions-part-5.html' title='Core Java Interview Questions Part-5'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-5335912816459427510</id><published>2008-10-06T03:16:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:17:39.519-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions with answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interview questions on core java'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions and answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corejava interview questions'/><title type='text'>Core Java Interview Questions Part-6</title><content type='html'>&lt;h3 class="post-title entry-title"&gt; &lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;div class="post-body entry-content"&gt; &lt;p&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:worddocument&gt;   &lt;w:view&gt;Normal&lt;/w:View&gt;   &lt;w:zoom&gt;0&lt;/w:Zoom&gt;   &lt;w:punctuationkerning/&gt;   &lt;w:validateagainstschemas/&gt;   &lt;w:saveifxmlinvalid&gt;false&lt;/w:SaveIfXMLInvalid&gt;   &lt;w:ignoremixedcontent&gt;false&lt;/w:IgnoreMixedContent&gt;   &lt;w:alwaysshowplaceholdertext&gt;false&lt;/w:AlwaysShowPlaceholderText&gt;   &lt;w:compatibility&gt;    &lt;w:breakwrappedtables/&gt;    &lt;w:snaptogridincell/&gt;    &lt;w:wraptextwithpunct/&gt;    &lt;w:useasianbreakrules/&gt;    &lt;w:dontgrowautofit/&gt;   &lt;/w:Compatibility&gt;   &lt;w:browserlevel&gt;MicrosoftInternetExplorer4&lt;/w:BrowserLevel&gt;  &lt;/w:WordDocument&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 9]&gt;&lt;xml&gt;  &lt;w:latentstyles deflockedstate="false" latentstylecount="156"&gt;  &lt;/w:LatentStyles&gt; &lt;/xml&gt;&lt;![endif]--&gt;&lt;!--[if gte mso 10]&gt; &lt;style&gt;  /* Style Definitions */  table.MsoNormalTable  {mso-style-name:"Table Normal";  mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0;  mso-tstyle-colband-size:0;  mso-style-noshow:yes;  mso-style-parent:"";  mso-padding-alt:0in 5.4pt 0in 5.4pt;  mso-para-margin:0in;  mso-para-margin-bottom:.0001pt;  mso-pagination:widow-orphan;  font-size:10.0pt;  font-family:"Times New Roman";  mso-ansi-language:#0400;  mso-fareast-language:#0400;  mso-bidi-language:#0400;} &lt;/style&gt; &lt;![endif]--&gt;  &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;76 Q What do you mean by immutable ? How to create an immutable object ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Immutability means an object cannot be modified after it has been initialized. There will not be any setter methods in an immutable class. And normally these classes will be final.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;77 Q What is class loader in &lt;span class="klink"&gt;java&lt;/span&gt; ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A class loader is a class that is responsible for loading the class. All JVM contains one class loader called primordial class loader. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;78 Q What is a weak reference ? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A weak reference is the one that does nor prevent the referenced object from being garbage collected. The weak reference will not keep the object that it refers to alive. A weak reference is not counted as a reference in garbage collection. This will make the memory use more effective.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;79 Q What is object cloning?   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;It is the process of duplicating an object so that two identical objects will exist in the memory at the same time.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;80 Q What is object pooling? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Creating a large number of identical short lived objects is called object pooling. This helps to minimize the need of garbage collection and makes the memory use more effective.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;81 Q What is garbage collection? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Garbage collection is the process of releasing memory used by unreferenced objects. It relieves the &lt;span class="klink"&gt;programmer&lt;/span&gt; from the process of manually releasing the memory used by objects .&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;82 Q What is the disadvantage of garbage collection? A&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;It adds an overhead that can affect &lt;span class="klink"&gt;performance&lt;/span&gt;. Additionally there is no guarantee that the object will be garbage collected. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;83 Q What is a Dictionary? &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Dictionary is a parent class for any class that maps keys to values., In a dictionary every key is associated with at most one value. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;84 Q What is JAR file ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;JAR stands for Java Archive. This is a file format that enables you to bundle multiple files into a single archive file. A jar file will contains a manifest.mf file inside META-INF folder that describes the version and other features of jar file. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;85 Q Why Java is not fully objective oriented ? &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Due to the use of primitives in java, which are not objects. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;86 Q What is a marker interface ? &lt;span style=""&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;An interface that contains no methods.

It is the run time for java programs. All are java programs are running inside this JVM only. It converts java byte code to OS specific commands. In addition to governing the execution of an &lt;span class="klink"&gt;application's&lt;/span&gt; byte codes, the virtual machine handles related tasks such as managing the system's memory, providing &lt;span class="klink"&gt;security&lt;/span&gt; against malicious code, and managing multiple threads of program execution.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;90 Q What is JIT? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;JIT stands for Just In Time &lt;span class="klink"&gt;compiler&lt;/span&gt;.

Can you REWRITE a record in an ESDS file? Can you DELETE a record from it? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Can rewrite(record length must be same), but not delete. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;141.What is file status 92? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Logic error. e.g., a file is opened for input and an attempt is made to write to it. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;142.What is file status 39? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Mismatch in LRECL or BLOCKSIZE or RECFM between your COBOL pgm &amp;amp; the JCL (or the dataset label). You will get file status 39 on an OPEN. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;143.What is Static, Dynamic linking ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: In static linking, the called subroutine is link-edited into the calling program , while in dynamic linking, the subroutine &amp;amp; the main program will exist as separate load modules. You choose static/dynamic linking by choosing either the DYNAM or NODYNAM link edit option. (Even if you choose NODYNAM, a CALL identifier (as opposed to a CALL literal), will translate to a DYNAMIC call). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A statically called subroutine will not be in its initial state the next time it is called unless you explicitly use INITIAL or you do a CANCEL. A dynamically called routine will always be in its initial state. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;144.Explain NEXT and CONTINUE verbs for file handling. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: A The Continue verb is used for a situation where there in no EOF condition. i.e. The records are to be accessed again and again in a file. Whereas in the next verb the indexed file is accessed sequentially, whence when index clause is accessed sequentially read next record command is used. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;145. What is AMODE(24), AMODE(31), RMODE(24) and RMODE(ANY)? (applicable to only MVS/ESA). &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: These are compile/link edit options. AMODE - Addressing mode. RMODE - Residency mode. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;AMODE(24) - 24 bit addressing. AMODE(31) - 31 bit addressing. AMODE(ANY) - Either 24 bit or 31 bit addressing depending on RMODE. RMODE(24) - Resides in virtual storage below 16 Meg line. Use this for 31 bit programs that call 24 bit programs. (OS/VS Cobol pgms use 24 bit addresses only). RMODE(ANY) - Can reside above or below 16 Meg line. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;146.

What is SSRANGE, NOSSRANGE ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: These are compiler options w.r.t subscript out of range checking. NOSSRANGE is the default and if chosen, no run time error will be flagged if your index or subscript goes out of the permissible range. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;148. How do you set a return code to the JCL from a COBOL program? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Move a value to RETURN-CODE register. RETURN-CODE should not be declared in your program. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;149. How can you submit a job from COBOL programs? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Write JCL cards to a dataset with &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;//xxxxxxx SYSOUT=(A,INTRDR) where 'A' is output class, and dataset should be opened for output in the program.

What does the INITIALIZE verb do? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Alphabetic, Alphanumeric fields &amp;amp; alphanumeric edited items are set to SPACES. Numeric, Numeric edited items set to ZERO. FILLER , OCCURS DEPENDING ON items left untouched &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;156. What is the difference between a 01 level and 77 levels? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: 01 level can have sublevels from 02 to 49. 77 cannot have sublevel. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;157. What are 77 levels used for? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Elementary level item. Cannot be subdivisions of other items (cannot be qualified), nor can they be subdivided themselves. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;158. What is 88 level used for? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: For condition names. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;159. What is level 66 used for? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: For RENAMES clause. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;160. What does the IS NUMERIC clause establish? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: IS NUMERIC can be used on alphanumeric items, signed numeric &amp;amp; packed decimal items and unsigned numeric &amp;amp; packed decimal items. IS NUMERIC returns TRUE if the item only consists of 0-9. However, if the item being tested is a signed item, then it may contain 0-9, + and - . &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;161. Is compute w=u a valid statement? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Yes, it is. It is equivalent to move u to w. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;162. In the above example, when will you prefer compute statement over the move statement? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: When significant left-order digits would be lost in execution, the COMPUTE statement can detect the condition and allow you to handle it. The MOVE statement carries out the assignment with destructive truncation. Therefore, if the size error is needs to be detected, COMPUTE will be preferred over MOVE. The ON SIZE ERROR phrase of COMPUTE statement, compiler generates code to detect size-overflow. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;163. What happens when the ON SIZE ERROR phrase is specified on a COMPUTE statement? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: If the condition occurs, the code in the ON SIZE ERROR phrase is performed, and the content of the destination field remains unchanged. If the ON SIZE ERROR phrase is not specified, the assignment is carried out with truncation. There is no ON SIZE ERROR support for the MOVE statement. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;164. How will you associate your files with external data sets where they physically reside? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Using SELECT clause, the files can be associated with external data sets. The SELECT clause is defined in the FILE-CONTROL paragraph of Input-Output Section that is coded Environment Division. The File structure is defined by FD entry under File-Section of Data Division for the OS. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;165. How will you define your file to the &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;operating system&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Associate the file with the external data set using SELECT clause of INPUT-OUTPUT SECTION. INPUT-OUTPUT SECTION appears inside the ENVIRONMENT DIVISION. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;166. Explain the use of Declaratives in COBOL? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Declaratives provide special section that are executed when an exceptional condition occurs. They must be grouped together and coded at the beginning of procedure division and the entire procedure division must be divided into sections. The Declaratives start with a USE statement. The entire group of declaratives is preceded by DECLARIVES and followed by END DECLARITIVES in area A. The three types of declaratives are Exception (when error occurs during file handling), Debugging (to debug lines with 'D' coded in w-s section) and Label (for EOF or beginning...) declaratives. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;167. How do you define a table/array in COBOL? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;01 ARRAYS. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;05 ARRAY1 PIC X(9) OCCURS 10 TIMES. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;05 ARRAY2 PIC X(6) OCCURS 20 TIMES INDEXED BY WS-INDEX. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;168. Can the OCCURS clause be at the 01 level? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: No &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;169. A statically bound subprogram is called twice. What happens to working-storage variables? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans:The working-storage section is allocated at the start of the run-unit and any data items with VALUE clauses are initialized to the appropriate value at the time. When the subprogram is called the second time, a working-storage items persist in their last used state. However, if the program is specified with INITIAL on the PROGRAM-ID, working-storage section is reinitialized each time the program is entered. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;170. Significance of the COMMON Attribute ? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans:COMMON attribute is used with nested COBOL programs. If it is not specified, other nested programs will not be able to access the program. PROGRAM-ID. Pgmname is COMMON PROGRAM. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;171. In which division and section, the Special-names paragraph appears? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Environment division and Configuration Section. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;172. What is the LOCAL-STORAGE SECTION? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans:Local-Storage is allocated each time the program is called and is de-allocated when the program returns via an EXIT PROGRAM, GOBACK, or STOP RUN. Any data items with a VALUE clauses are initialized to the appropriate value each time the program is called. The value in the data items is lost when the program returns. It is defined in the DATA DIVISION after WORKING-STORAGE SECTION &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;173. What does passing BY REFERENCE mean? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans:When the data is passed between programs, the subprogram refers to and processes the data items in the calling program's storage, rather than working on a copy of the data. When &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;CALL . . . BY REFERENCE identifier. In this case, the caller and the called share the same memory. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;174. What does passing BY CONTENT mean? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans:The calling program passes only the contents of the literal, or identifier. With a CALL . . . BY CONTENT, the called program cannot change the value of the literal or identifier in the calling program, even if it modifies the variable in which it received the literal or identifier. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;175. What does passing BY VALUE mean? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans:The calling program or method is passing the value of the literal, or identifier, not a reference to the sending data item. The called program or invoked method can change the parameter in the called program or invoked method. However, because the subprogram or method has access only to a temporary copy of the sending data item, those changes do not affect the argument in the calling program. Use By value, If you want to pass data to C program. Parameters must be of certain data type. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;176. What is the default, passing BY REFERENCE or passing BY CONTENT or passing BY VALUE? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Passing by reference (the caller and the called share the same memory). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;177. Where do you define your data in a program if the data is passed to the program from a Caller program? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Linkage Section&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-7736873483312823023?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/7736873483312823023/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=7736873483312823023' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/7736873483312823023'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/7736873483312823023'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/cobol-interview-questions-part-10.html' title='Cobol Interview Questions Part-10'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-2108338612768790146</id><published>2008-10-06T03:00:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:12:38.247-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cobol questions and'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cobol interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cobol questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cobol objective questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interview questions for cobol'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='cobol questions and answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='questions on cobol'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='mainframe cobol questions'/><title type='text'>Cobol Interview Questions Part-11</title><content type='html'>&lt;h3 class="post-title entry-title"&gt; &lt;/h3&gt;  &lt;div class="post-body entry-content"&gt; &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;178. Define the structure of a COBOL subroutine. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: The PROCEDURE DIVISION header must have a using a phrase, if the data needs to be passed to the program. The operands of the USING phrase must be defined in the LINKAGE SECTION as 01-level or 77-level entries. No VALUE clause is allowed unless the data defined is a condition name. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;If the program needs to be returned to the CALLER, use EXIT PROGRAM statement at the end of the program. GOBACK is an alternative, but is nonstandard. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;179. What is difference between next sentence and continue &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: NEXT SENTENCE gives control to the verb following the next period. CONTINUE gives control to the next verb after the explicit scope terminator. (This is not one of COBOL II's finer implementations). It's safest to use CONTINUE rather than NEXT SENTENCE in COBOL II. CONTINUE is like a null statement (do nothing) , while NEXT SENTENCE transfers control to the next sentence (!!) (A sentence is terminated by a period). Check out by writing the following code example, one if sentence followed by 3 display statements: If 1 &gt; 0 then next sentence end if display 'line 1' display 'line 2'. display 'line 3'. *** Note- there is a dot (.) only at the end of the last 2 statements, see the effect by replacing Next Sentence with Continue *** &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;180. What is the difference between Structured Cobol Programming and Object Oriented COBOL programming? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: Structured programming is a Logical way of programming using which you divide the functionality's into modules and code logically. OOP is a Natural way of programming in which you identify the objects, first then write functions and procedures around the objects. Sorry, this may not be an adequate answer, but they are two different programming paradigms, which is difficult to put in a sentence or two. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;181. PIC S9(4)COMP is used in spite of COMP-3 which occupies less space why? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans:S9(4) COMP uses only 2 bytes. 9(4) COMP-3 uses 3 bytes. 3 bytes are more than 2 bytes. Hence COMP is preferred over COMP-3 in this case. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;182. How many number of bytes and digits are involved in S9(10) COMP? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: 8 bytes (double word) and 10 digits. Up to 9(9) comp use full word, up to 9(18) comp needs double word. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;183. How many numbers of decimal digits are possible, when the amount of storage allocated for a USAGE COMP item is a) half word b) full word c) double word? &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Ans: 2 bytes (halfword) for 1-4 Digits 4 bytes (fullword) for 5-9 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="answer"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;8 bytes (doubleword) for 10-18 &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;184.

ASCENDING is default. If you want the search to be done on an array sorted in descending order, then while defining the array, you should give DESCENDING KEY clause. (You must load the table in the specified order). &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="question"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;196.

The half to which the desired item may belong is again divided into two halves and the previous procedure is followed. This continues until the item is found. SEARCH ALL is efficient for tables larger than 70 items.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-2108338612768790146?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/2108338612768790146/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=2108338612768790146' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/2108338612768790146'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/2108338612768790146'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/cobol-interview-questions-part-11.html' title='Cobol Interview Questions Part-11'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-8246558470033879184</id><published>2008-10-06T02:56:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-06T03:00:15.119-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions with answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interview questions on core java'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions and answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corejava interview questions'/><title type='text'>Core Java Interview Questions Part-7</title><content type='html'>&lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Iterator differ from enumeration in two ways Iterator allow the caller to remove elements from the underlying collection during the iteration with well-defined semantics.

In order to compile a java program, we don't require any main method. But to execute a java program we must have a main in it (unless it is an applet or servlet).

The overriding method cannot be less visible than the method it overrides( i.e., a public method cannot be override to private). The overriding method may not throw any exceptions that may not be thrown by the overridden method&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;110 Q What is static initializer block?

But if we are implementing Runnable , it is mandatory to override the run method. The preferred way to create a thread is by implementing Runnable interface, because it give loose coupling.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;120 Q What is coupling? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Coupling is the dependency between different components of a &lt;span class="klink"&gt;system&lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;121 Q How is an interface?     &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;An interface is a collection of method declarations and constants. In &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;"&gt;java&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; interfaces are used to achieve multiple inheritance. It sets a behavioral protocol to all implementing classes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;122 Q What is an abstract class?     &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;An abstract class is an incomplete class. An abstract class is defined with the &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;"&gt;keyword&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; abstract . We cannot create an object of the abstract class because it is not complete. It sets a behavioral protocol for all its child classes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;123 Q How will you define an interface?     &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;An interface is defined with the keyword interface.

The heap may be of a fixed size or may be expanded. The heap is created on virtual machine start-up. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;127 Q What is difference between string and StringTokenizer?    &lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;StringTokenizer as its name suggests tokenizes a String supplied to it as an argument to its constructor and the character based on which tokens of that string are to be made. The default tokenizing character is space " ". &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;128 Q What is the difference between array and ArrayList ?     &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Array is collection of same data type. Array size is fixed, It cannot be expanded. But ArrayList is a growable collection of objects. ArrayList is a part of Collections Framework and can work with only objects.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;129 Q What is difference between java.lang .Class and java.lang.ClassLoader? What is the hierarchy of ClassLoader ?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Class 'java.lang.Class' represent classes and interfaces in a running Java &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;"&gt;application&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. JVM construct 'Class' object when class in loaded. Where as a ClassLoader is also a class which loads the class files into memory in order for the Java programs to execute properly. The hierarchy of ClassLoaders is:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Bootstrap ClassLoaders&lt;br /&gt;Extensive ClassLoaders&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class="klink"&gt;System&lt;/span&gt; Classpath ClassLoaders&lt;br /&gt;Application ClassLoaders &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;130 Q What is daemon thread? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Theards which are running on the background are called deamon threads. daemon thread is a thread which doesn't give any chance to run other threads once it enters into the run state it doesn't give any chance to run other threads. Normally it will run forever, but when all other non-daemon threads are dead, daemon thread will be killed by JVM &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;131 Q What is a green thread? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Native threads can switch between threads preemptively. Green threads switch only when control is explicitly given up by a thread ( Thread.yield(), Object.wait(), etc.) or a thread performs a blocking operation (read(), etc.). On multi-CPU machines, native threads can run more than one thread simultaneously by assigning different threads to different &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-weight: 400; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;"&gt;CPUs&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;. Green threads run on only one CPU. Native threads create the appearance that many Java processes are running: each thread takes up its own entry in the process table. One clue that these are all threads of the same process is that the memory size is identical for all the threads - they are all using the same memory. The process table is not infinitely large, and processes can only create a limited number of threads before running out of system resources or hitting configured limits.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-6793107720843787449?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/6793107720843787449/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=6793107720843787449' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/6793107720843787449'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/6793107720843787449'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/10/core-java-interview-questions-part-8.html' title='Core Java Interview Questions Part-8'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-8380869814873698356</id><published>2008-10-02T01:20:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-10-02T01:23:35.406-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions with answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='interview questions on core java'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions and answers'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java question'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='core java interview questions'/><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='corejava interview questions'/><title type='text'>Core Java Interview Questions Part-9</title><content type='html'>&lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;132 Q What is volatile variable? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A volatile variable is not allowed to have a local copy of a variable that is different from the value currently held in "main" memory. Volatile modifier requests the JVM to always access the shared copy of the variable so the its most current value is always read. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;133 Q Why &lt;span class="kLink" style="text-decoration: underline ! important; position: static;"&gt;&lt;span style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;color:blue;" &gt;&lt;span class="kLink" style="color: blue ! important; font-family: Verdana; font-size: 14.6667px; position: static;"&gt;java&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; does not &lt;span class="klink"&gt;support&lt;/span&gt; multiple inheritance? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Because the multiple inheritance causes the redundancy.

The sandbox typically provides a tightly-controlled set of resources for guest programs to run in, such as scratch space on disk and memory.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;  140 Q What is phantom memory?     &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Phantom memory is the memory that does not exist in reality.   &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;&lt;o:p&gt; &lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;141 Q What is reflection?     &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;Reflection is the process of finding out the different features of a class dynamically.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;142 Q What are the differences between JIT and HotSpot?  &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The Hotspot VM is a collection of techniques, the most important of which is called adaptive optimization. The original JVMs interpreted byte codes one at a time. Second-generation JVMs added a JIT &lt;span class="klink"&gt;compiler&lt;/span&gt;, which compiles each method to native code upon first execution, then executes the native code. Thereafter, whenever the method is called, the native code is executed. The adaptive optimization technique used by Hotspot is a hybrid approach, one that combines byte code interpretation and run-time compilation to native code. Hotspot, unlike a regular JIT compiling VM, doesn't do "premature optimization"&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;143 Q What are the advantages and disadvantages of reference counting in garbage collection?&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;An advantage of this scheme is that it can run in small chunks of time closely linked with the execution of the program. These characteristic makes it particularly suitable for real-time environments where the program can't be interrupted for very long time. A disadvantage of reference counting is that it does not detect cycles. A cycle is two or more objects that refer to one another. Another disadvantage is the overhead of incrementing and decrementing the reference count each time. Because of these disadvantages, reference counting currently is out of favor.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;144 Q How would you implement a thread pool?    &lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The ThreadPool class is a generic implementation of a thread pool, which takes the following input Size of the pool to be constructed and name of the class which implements Runnable (which has a visible default constructor) and constructs a thread pool with active threads that are waiting for activation. once the threads have finished processing they come back and wait once again in the pool. &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;145 Q What is the difference between throw and throws clause? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;throw is used to throw an exception manually, where as throws is used in the case of checked exceptions, to tell the compiler that we haven't handled the exception, so that the exception will be handled by the calling function.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;146 Q What is JAR file? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A JAR file (short for Java Archive) is a &lt;span class="klink"&gt;&lt;span style="color: windowtext; text-decoration: none;"&gt;ZIP file&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt; used to distribute a set of Java classes. It is used to store compiled Java classes and associated metadata that can constitute a program&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;147 Q What is a classloader? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;A class loader is an object that is responsible for loading classes.&lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;b style=""&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;148 Q What is the difference between Comparable and Comparator ? &lt;o:p&gt;&lt;/o:p&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/p&gt;  &lt;p&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 11pt; font-family: Verdana;"&gt;The Comparable is for natural ordering and Comparator is for custom ordering.

Among all the ERP?s most of the companies implemented or trying to implement SAP because of number of advantages aver other ERP packages.&lt;br /&gt;   3.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is SAP? - SAP is the name of the company founded in 1972 under the German name (Systems, Applications, and Products in Data Processing) is the leading ERP (Enterprise Resource Planning) software package.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   4.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Explain the concept of “Business Content” in SAP Business Information Warehouse? - Business Content is a pre-configured set of role and task-relevant information models based on consistent Metadata in the SAP Business Information Warehouse. Business Content provides selected roles within a company with the information they need to carry out their tasks. These information models essentially contain roles, workbooks, queries, InfoSources, InfoCubes, key figures, characteristics, update rules and extractors for SAP R/3, mySAP.com Business Applications and other selected applications.&lt;br /&gt;   5.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Why do you usually choose to implement SAP? - There are number of technical reasons numbers of companies are planning to implement SAP. It’s highly configurable, highly secure data handling, min data redundancy, max data consistency, you can capitalize on economics of sales like purchasing, tight integration-cross function.&lt;br /&gt;   6.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Can BW run without a SAP R/3 implementation? - Certainly. You can run BW without R/3 implementation. You can use pre-defined business content in BW using your non-SAP data. Here you simply need to map the transfer structures associated with BW data sources (InfoCubes, ODS tables) to the inbound data files or use 3rd part tool to connect your flat files and other data sources and load data in BW. Several third party ETL products such as Acta, Infomatica, DataStage and others will have been certified to load data in BW.&lt;br /&gt;   7.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is IDES? - International Demonstration and Education System. A sample application provided for faster learning and implementation.&lt;br /&gt;   8.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is WF and its importance? - Business Work Flow: Tool for automatic control and execution of cross-application processes. This involves coordinating the persons involved, the work steps required, the data, which needs to be processed (business objects). The main advantage is reduction in throughput times and the costs involved in managing business processes. Transparency and quality are enhanced by its use.&lt;br /&gt;   9.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is SAP R/3? - A third generation set of highly integrated software modules that performs common business function based on multinational leading practice. Takes care of any enterprise however diverse in operation, spread over the world. In R/3 system all the three servers like presentation, application server and database server are located at different system.&lt;br /&gt;  10.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What are presentation, application and database servers in SAP R/3? - The application layer of an R/3 System is made up of the application servers and the message server. Application programs in an R/3 System are run on application servers. The application servers communicate with the presentation components, the database, and also with each other, using the message server. All the data are stored in a centralized server. This server is called database server.&lt;br /&gt;  11.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What should be the approach for writing a BDC program? - Convert the legacy system data to a flat file and convert flat file into internal table. Transfer the flat file into sap system called “sap data transfer”. Call transaction(Write the program explicitly) or create sessions (sessions are created and processed ,if success data will transfer).&lt;br /&gt;  12.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Explain open SQL vs native SQL? - ABAP Native SQL allows you to include database-specific SQL statements in an ABAP program. Most ABAP programs containing database-specific SQL statements do not run with different databases. If different databases are involved, use Open SQL. To execute ABAP Native SQL in an ABAP program, use the statement EXEC. Open SQL (Subset of standard SQL statements), allows you to access all database tables available in the R/3 System, regardless of the manufacturer. To avoid conflicts between database tables and to keep ABAP programs independent from the database system used, SAP has generated its own set of SQL statements known as Open SQL.&lt;br /&gt;  13.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What are datasets? - The sequential files (processed on application server) are called datasets. They are used for file handling in SAP.&lt;br /&gt;  14.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What are internal tables check table, value table, and transparent table? - Internal table: It is a standard data type object, which exists only during the runtime of the program. Check table: Check table will be at field level checking. Value table: Value table will be at domain level checking ex: scarr table is check table for carrid. Transparent table: - Exists with the same structure both in dictionary as well as in database exactly with the same data and fields.&lt;br /&gt;  15.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What are the major benefits of reporting with BW over R/3? Would it be sufficient just to Web-enable R/3 Reports? - Performance — Heavy reporting along with regular OLTP transactions can produce a lot of load both on the R/3 and the database (cpu, memory, disks, etc). Just take a look at the load put on your system during a month end, quarter end, or year-end — now imagine that occurring even more frequently. Data analysis — BW uses a Data Warehouse and OLAP concepts for storing and analyzing data, where R/3 was designed for transaction processing. With a lot of work you can get the same analysis out of R/3 but most likely would be easier from a BW.&lt;br /&gt;  16.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      How can an ERP such as SAP help a business owner learn more about how business operates? - In order to use an ERP system, a&lt;br /&gt;      business person must understand the business processes and how they work together from one functional area to the other. This knowledge gives the student a much deeper understanding of how a business operates. Using SAP as a tool to learn about ERP systems will require that the&lt;br /&gt;      people understand the business processes and how they integrate.&lt;br /&gt;  17.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is the difference between OLAP and Data Mining? - OLAP - On line Analytical processing is a reporting tool configured to understand your database schema ,composition facts and dimensions . By simple point-n-clicking, a user can run any number of canned or user-designed reports without having to know anything of SQL or the schema. Because of that prior configuration, the OLAP engine “builds” and executes the appropriate SQL. Mining is to build the application to specifically look at detailed analyses, often algorithmic; even more often misappropriate called “reporting.&lt;br /&gt;  18.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is ?Extended Star Schema? and how did it emerge? - The Star Schema consists of the Dimension Tables and the Fact Table. The Master Data related tables are kept in separate tables, which has reference to the characteristics in the dimension table(s). These separate tables for master data is termed as the Extended Star Schema.&lt;br /&gt;  19.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Define Meta data, Master data and Transaction data - Meta Data: Data that describes the structure of data or MetaObjects is called Metadata. In other words data about data is known as Meta Data. Master Data: Master data is data that remains unchanged over a long period of time. It contains information that is always needed in the same way. Characteristics can bear master data in BW. With master data you are dealing with attributes, texts or hierarchies. Transaction data: Data relating to the day-to-day transactions is the Transaction data.&lt;br /&gt;  20.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Name some drawbacks of SAP - Interfaces are huge problem, Determine where master data resides, Expensive, very complex, demands highly trained staff, lengthy implementation time.&lt;br /&gt;  21.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is Bex? - Bex stands for Business Explorer. Bex enables end user to locate reports, view reports, analyze information and can execute queries. The queries in workbook can be saved to there respective roles in the Bex browser. Bex has the following components: Bex Browser, Bex analyzer, Bex Map, Bex Web.&lt;br /&gt;  22.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What are variables? - Variables are parameters of a query that are set in the parameter query definition and are not filled with values until the queries are inserted into workbooks. There are different types of variables which are used in different application: Characteristics variables, Hierarchies and hierarchy node, Texts, Formulas, Processing types, User entry/Default type, Replacment Path.&lt;br /&gt;  23.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is AWB?. What is its purpose? - AWB stands for Administrator WorkBench. AWB is a tool for controlling, monitoring and maintaining all the processes connected with data staging and processing in the business information whearhousing.&lt;br /&gt;  24.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is the significance of ODS in BIW? - An ODS Object serves to store consolidated and debugged transaction data on a document level (atomic level). It describes a consolidated dataset from one or more InfoSources. This dataset can be analyzed with a BEx Query or InfoSet Query. The data of an ODS Object can be updated with a delta update into InfoCubes and/or other ODS Objects in the same system or across systems. In contrast to multi-dimensional data storage with InfoCubes, the data in ODS Objects is stored in transparent, flat database tables.&lt;br /&gt;  25.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What are the different types of source system? - SAP R/3 Source Systems, SAP BW, Flat Files and External Systems.&lt;br /&gt;  26.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What is Extractor? - Extractors is a data retrieval mechanisms in the SAP source system. Which can fill the extract structure of a data source with the data from the SAP source system datasets. The extractor may be able to supply data to more fields than exist in the extract structure. &lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-2765879630462854775?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/2765879630462854775/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=2765879630462854775' title='1 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/2765879630462854775'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/2765879630462854775'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/08/sap-interview-questions-2008-with.html' title='SAP Interview Questions 2008 with solutions IMP interview questions'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>1</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-4422509350862246892</id><published>2008-08-12T22:48:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-12T22:50:17.840-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='SAP Interview Latest Questions and answers'/><title type='text'>SAP ABAP Interview Questions IMP interview questions</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=""&gt;    * Simple SAP ABAP questions&lt;br /&gt;    * What is the diffrence between watchpoint and breakpoint?&lt;br /&gt;    * How many watchpoints and breakpoints can be used in each program?&lt;br /&gt;    * Types of watchpoints and breakpoints?&lt;br /&gt;    * How do you transfer file from application server to SAP R/3 system?&lt;br /&gt;    * What is commit and rollback?&lt;br /&gt;    * Using BDC when uploading the data to database, what are all the fields that the table (BDCDATA) will display? &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Keep Watching out for more SAP ABAP Interview Questions for 2008 for all leading IT Companies.

It will load the MBR, master boot record, into the memory, and tell the system which partition and hard drive to boot from.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2.What is the main advantage of creating links to a file instead of copies of the file?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: The main advantage is not really that it saves disk space (though it does that too) but, rather, that a change of permissions on the file is applied to all the link access points. The link will show permissions of lrwxrwxrwx but that is for the link itself and not the access to the file to which the link points. Thus if you want to change the permissions for a command, such as su, you only have to do it on the original. With copies you have to find all of the copies and change permission on each of the copies.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3.Write a command to find all of the files which have been accessed within the last 30 days.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    find / -type f -atime -30 &gt; December.files&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This command will find all the files under root, which is ‘/’, with file type is file. ‘-atime -30′ will give all the files accessed less than 30 days ago. And the output will put into a file call December.files.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4.What is the most graceful way to get to run level single user mode?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: The most graceful way is to use the command init s.&lt;br /&gt;If you want to shut everything down before going to single user mode then do init 0 first and from the ok prompt do a boot -s.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5.What does the following command line produce? Explain each aspect of this line.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;    $ (date ; ps -ef awk ‘{print $1}’ sort uniq wc -l ) &gt;&gt; Activity.log &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;A: First let’s dissect the line: The date gives the date and time as the first command of the line, this is followed by the a list of all running processes in long form with UIDs listed first, this is the ps -ef. These are fed into the awk which filters out all but the UIDs; these UIDs are piped into sort for no discernible reason and then onto uniq (now we see the reason for the sort - uniq only works on sorted data - if the list is A, B, A, then A, B, A will be the output of uniq, but if it’s A, A, B then A, B is the output) which produces only one copy of each UID.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;These UIDs are fed into wc -l which counts the lines - in this case the number of distinct UIDs running processes on the system. Finally the results of these two commands, the date and the wc -l, are appended to the file "Activity.log". Now to answer the question as to what this command line produces. This writes the date and time into the file Activity.log together with the number of distinct users who have processes running on the system at that time. If the file already exists, then these items are appended to the file, otherwise the file is created.&lt;/a&gt;&lt;div class="blogger-post-footer"&gt;&lt;img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/1569815404452859393-8435707440400294067?l=thajava.blogspot.com' alt='' /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/feeds/8435707440400294067/comments/default' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='replies' type='text/html' href='http://www.blogger.com/comment.g?blogID=1569815404452859393&amp;postID=8435707440400294067' title='0 Comments'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/8435707440400294067'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/1569815404452859393/posts/default/8435707440400294067'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://thajava.blogspot.com/2008/08/unix-linux-open-source-os-interview.html' title='Unix Linux Open Source OS Interview Questions IMP interview questions'/><author><name>vasamity</name><uri>http://www.blogger.com/profile/09960633641358736281</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='http://img2.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:total>0</thr:total></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1569815404452859393.post-3840309285983141349</id><published>2008-08-12T00:26:00.000-07:00</published><updated>2008-08-12T00:28:12.196-07:00</updated><category scheme='http://www.blogger.com/atom/ns#' term='Unix and Linux Operating System Interview Questions'/><title type='text'>Open Source Linux Programming Interview Questions IMP interview questions</title><content type='html'>&lt;a href=""&gt;Unix and Linux Software programming Interview Questions 2008&lt;br /&gt;1. What is the major advantage of a hash table? (Asked by Silicon Magic Corp. people) Answer: The major advantage of a hash table is its speed. Because the hash function is to take a range of key values and transform them into index values in such a way that the key values are distributed randomly across all the indices of a hash table.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;2. What are the techniques that you use to handle the collisions in hash tables?(Asked by Silicon Magic Corp. people)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Answer: We can use two major techniques to handle the collisions. They are open addressing and separate chaining. In open addressing, data items that hash to a full array cell are placed in another cell in the array. In separate chaining, each array element consist of a linked list. All data items hashing to a given array index are inserted in that list.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3. In Unix OS, what is the file server? (Asked by Silicon Magic Corp. people)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Answer: The file server is a machine that shares its disk storage and files with other machines on the network.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;4. What is NFS? What is its job?(Asked by Silicon Magic Corp. people)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Answer: NFS stands for Network File System. NFS enables filesystems physically residing on one computer system to be used by other computers in the network, appearing to users on the remote host as just another local disk.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;5. What is CVS? List some useful CVS commands.(Asked by Silicon Magic Corp.people)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Anser: CVS is Concurrent Version System. It is the front end to the RCS revision control system which extends the notion of revision control from a collection of files in a single directory to a hierarchical collection of directories consisting of revision controlled files. These directories and files can be combined together to form a software release.&lt;br /&gt;There are some useful commands that are being used very often. They are&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;cvs checkout&lt;br /&gt;cvs update&lt;br /&gt;cvs add&lt;br /&gt;cvs remove&lt;br /&gt;cvs commit&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Unix and Linux Open source operating system latest solved interview questions with answers for 2007, 2008 are provided here for leading Open source software developers in India / USA / China / Europe.

Instead, they were emphasizing that you should put your time into testing than working on the test plan. Your Project Manager asked for your opinion. You have argued that Test Plan is very important and you need to update your test plan from time to time. It’s not a waste of time and testing activities would be more effective when you have your plan clear. Use some metrics. How you would support your argument to have the test plan consistently updated all the time.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;   2.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      The QAI is starting a project to put the CSTE certification online.

What steps would you use to test the system and also what are the effects of the steps you have taken on the test plan?&lt;br /&gt;  40.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Explain and provide examples for the following black box techniques?&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Boundary Value testing&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Equivalence testing&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Error Guessing &lt;br /&gt;  41.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      What are the product standards for?&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Test Plan&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Test Script and Test Report &lt;br /&gt;  42.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      You are the test manager starting on system testing. The development team says that due to a change in the requirements, they will be able to deliver the system for SQA 5 days past the deadline. You cannot change the resources (work hours, days, or test tools). What steps will you take to be able to finish the testing in time?&lt;br /&gt;  43.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Your company is about to roll out an e-commerce application. It’s not possible to test the application on all types of browsers on all platforms and operating systems. What steps would you take in the testing environment to reduce the business risks and commercial risks?&lt;br /&gt;  44.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      In your organization, testers are delivering code for system testing without performing unit testing. Give an example of test policy:&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Policy statement&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Methodology&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Measurement &lt;br /&gt;  45.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      Testers in your organization are performing tests on the deliverables even after significant defects have been found. This has resulted in unnecessary testing of little value, because re-testing needs to be done after defects have been rectified. You are going to update the test plan with recommendations on when to halt testing. Wwhat recommendations are you going to make?&lt;br /&gt;  46.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      How do you measure:&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Test Effectiveness&lt;br /&gt;          *&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;            Test Efficiency &lt;br /&gt;  47.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      You found out the senior testers are making more mistakes then junior testers; you need to communicate this aspect to the senior tester. Also, you don’t want to lose this tester. How should one go about constructive criticism?&lt;br /&gt;  48.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;      You are assigned to be the test lead for a new program that will automate take-offs and landings at an airport. How would you write a test strategy for this new program?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;See more Latest and previous Software testing Interview questions asked in technical interviews for 2007, 2008 january, february, march, april, may, june, july, august, september, october, november, december for leading IT Companies in India, USA, UK, Norway, China.
