Difference between JUnit&TestNG?
Ans :

Note: Please refer http://www.mkyong.com/unittest/junit-4-vs-testng-comparison/ for more details.

Explain TestNG annotations in brief.
Ans:
Annotation    Description
@BeforeSuite    The annotated method will be run only once before all tests in this suite have run.
@AfterSuite    The annotated method will be run only once after all tests in this suite have run.
@BeforeClass    The annotated method will be run only once before the first test method in the current class is invoked.
@AfterClass    The annotated method will be run only once after all the test methods in the current class have been run.
@BeforeTest    The annotated method will be run before any test method belonging to the classes inside the <test> tag is run.
@AfterTest    The annotated method will be run after all the test methods belonging to the classes inside the <test> tag have run.
@BeforeGroups    The list of groups that this configuration method will run before. This method is guaranteed to run shortly before the first test method that belongs to any of these groups is invoked.
@AfterGroups    The list of groups that this configuration method will run after. This method is guaranteed to run shortly after the last test method that belongs to any of these groups is invoked.
@BeforeMethod    The annotated method will be run before each test method.
@AfterMethod    The annotated method will be run after each test method.
@DataProvider    Marks a method as supplying data for a test method. The annotated method must return an Object[ ][ ] where each Object[ ] can be assigned the parameter list of the test method. The @Test method that wants to receive data from this DataProvider needs to use a dataProvider name equals to the name of this annotation.
@Factory    Marks a method as a factory that returns objects that will be used by TestNG as Test classes. The method must return Object[ ].
@Listeners    Defines listeners on a test class.
@Parameters    Describes how to pass parameters to a @Test method.
@Test    Marks a class or a method as part of the test.

What is Selenium Grid?
Ans: Selenium-Grid allows you run your tests on different machines against different browsers in parallel.
Start hub: java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.38.0.jar -role hub
Start node: java -jar selenium-server-standalone-2.38.0.jar -role node  -hub http://localhost:4444/grid/register
Create RemoteWebDriver object
WebDriver driver = new RemoteWebDriver(hub-url,capabilities);
Write code for Palindrome. e.g madam, dad
Ans : public static void checkPalindrome(String original){
        String reverse="";
        int length = original.length();
       
          for ( int i = length - 1 ; i >= 0 ; i-- )
             reverse = reverse + original.charAt(i);
   
          if (original.equals(reverse))
             System.out.println(original+" is a palindrome.");
          else
             System.out.println(original+" is not a palindrome.");
    }
Write code to remove duplicates from arr={1,2,3,1,4,5,3};
Ans : public static void removeDuplicatesAndSort(int arr[]) {
        int end = arr.length;
        Set<Integer> set = new HashSet<Integer>();

        for (int i = 0; i < end; i++) {
            set.add(arr[i]);
        }
        Iterator it = set.iterator();
        while (it.hasNext()) {
            System.out.println(it.next());
        }
    }
What is difference absolute & relative xpath? Write one xpath manually?
Ans:  XPATH is a language that describes how to locate specific elements, attributes, etc. in a xml document. It allows you to locate specific content within an XML document.
Location path is a specialization of an XPath expression. A location path identifies a set of XPath nodes relative to its context. XPath defines two syntaxes: the abbreviated syntax and the unabbreviated syntax. We consider only the abbreviated syntax because as the most widely used; the unabbreviated syntax is more complex.
The two types of location paths are relative and absolute.
Absolute XPath : Absolute XPath starts with / ( Note : ‘/’ is used for root path)
　　e.g. a) https://webmail.in.v2solutions.com/owa/
　　b) html/body/div[23]/div[4]/div[1]/div[2]/div/div
Relative XPath : Relative XPath starts with // (Note :‘//’ is used for current path)
　　Syntax: //element_type[@attribute_name =’value’]
　　e.g. a) //*[@id='gbqfba']
        b)//div[4]/div[1]/div[2]/div/div
  
Write code to reverse an array(int) of 1 to 10.
Ans: a) Using commons.lang java library
public static int arr[]={1,4,2,3,7,6};
    public static void revAnArray(int arr[]){
        ArrayUtils.reverse(arr);
        for(int i=0;i<arr.length;i++){
            System.out.println(arr[i]);
        }
    }

b) Reverse loop

public static void reverseByloop(int[] arr){
        int length=arr.length-1;
        for(int i=length;i>=0;i--){
            System.out.println(arr[i]);
        }
    }
Explain framework in brief.
What is difference between Hybrid, Native & Web apps(Android/iPhone).
Ans : a) Native app     : Apps which does not need web connectivity.
      b) Web app      :  App which runs in mobile web browser.
      c) Hybrid app    :  App having inbuilt web browser & native app components.
How to handles Alerts & Popups in selenium?
Ans: a) Alerts
Alert alert = driver.switchTo().alert();
alert.accept();

b)Popups & Windows
After click take windowhandle. Count number of windows from windowHandle. If count > 1, just close current window, switch window to parent window. 


 Ratings (out of 10) - Java, Selenium, TestNG.
Ans : Please rate it yourself.
How to handle multiple windows?
Ans:  After click take windowhandle. Count number of windows from windowHandle. If count > 1, just close current window, switch window to parent window. 

 How to handle frames?
Ans: driver.switchTo().frame(name_or_id)
driver.switchTo().frame(index)
Differences between close() & quit() browser
Ans: 1.driver.close() - Close the browser window that the driver has focus of
          2.driver.quit() - Calls dispose
          3.Dispose() Closes all browser windows and safely ends the session
What is the difference between “/” & “//” in XPath?
Ans:      / is used for root path (Absolute Path).
       // is used for current path (Relative Path)

Total tests run: 2, Failures: 0, Skips: 0
===============================================
See the above output and this is how the TestNG execution procedure is:
First of all beforeSuite() method is executed only once.
Lastly, the afterSuite() method executes only once.
Even the methods beforeTest(), beforeClass(), afterClass() and afterTest() methods are executed only once.
beforeMethod() method executes for each test case but before executing the test case.
afterMethod() method executes for each test case but after the execution of test case.
In between beforeMethod() and afterMethod() each test case executes.

Exaplain about '@DataProvider'?
Ans: A DataProvider is data feeder method defined in your class that supplies a test method with data .
The annotated method must return an Object[][] where each Object[] can be assigned the parameter list of the test method.
　　Example Script:
@DataProvider(name = "DP1")
public Object[][] createData() {
Object[][] retObjArr={{"001","Jack","London"},
                            {"002","John","New York"},
                            {"003","Mary","Miami"},
{"004","George","california"}};
return(retObjArr);
    }

@Test (dataProvider = "DP1")
public void testEmployeeData(String empid, String empName, String city){
selenium.type("id", empid);
selenium.type("name", empName);
selenium.click("submit_button");
selenium.waitForPageToLoad("30000");
assertTrue(selenium.isTextPresent(city)); }
 difference between 'implicit wait' and 'explicit wait'?
Ans:      In Implicit Wait , we define a code to wait for a certain amount of time when trying to find an element or elements. If the Web Driver cannot find it immediately because of its availability, the WebDriver will wait. The default setting is zero. Once we set a time, the Web Driver waits for the period of the WebDriver object instance.
    driver.manage().timeouts().implicitlyWait(10, TimeUnit.SECONDS);       

In Explicit Wait, we write a code to define a wait statement for certain condition to be satisfied until the wait reaches its timeout period. If WebDriver can find the element before the defined timeout value, the code execution will continue to next line of code. Therefore, it is important to setup a reasonable timeout seconds according to the system response.
WebDriverWait wait = new WebDriverWait(driver, 30); 
wait.until(ExpectedConditions.presenceOfElementLocated(by));

 Difference between 'final' and 'finally'?
final:
    final is a keyword. The variable declared as final should be initialized only once and cannot be changed. Java classes declared as final cannot be extended. Methods declared as final cannot be overridden.
   
finally:
    finally is a block. The finally block always executes when the try block exits. This ensures that the finally block is executed even if an unexpected exception occurs.

 Do you have any idea about 'jenkins'?
Ans:     Jenkins is one open source tool to perform continuous integration.
The basic functionality of Jenkins is to monitor a version control system and to start and monitor a build system (for example, Apache Ant or Maven) if changes occur.
Jenkins monitors the whole build process and provides reports and notifications to alert maintainers on success or errors.

  How to skip particular test using 'TestNG'?
Ans: @Test(enable=false)

What is the difference between “/” & “\” in java?
“/” :  - Allows in file path.
“\” :  - Doesn’t allow in file path, but “\\” allows in file path.
What are the Assertions and their drawbacks?
Assertions are conditional statements like if…else.
Drawback: Assertion aborts the execution when assertion fails
Difference between hashmap & hashtable?
Hashmap:
It is not synchronized
Allows one null key & any number of null values
Hashtable:
It is synchronized
Doesn’t allow null keys or values

How to handle multiple instances in grid
What is Interface and one example
An interface is a collection of abstract methods. A class implements an interface, thereby inheriting the abstract methods of the interface.
What is abstract class & example
An abstract class is a class that is declared abstract—it may or may not include abstract methods. Abstract classes cannot be instantiated, but they can be subclassed.
Difference between class, abstract class & interface
Main difference is methods of a Java interface are implicitly abstract and cannot have implementations. A Java abstract class can have instance methods that implements a default behavior.
Variables declared in a Java interface is by default final. An  abstract class may contain non-final variables.

                    swap = array[d];
                    array[d] = array[d + 1];
                    array[d + 1] = swap;

What is page object model?
Within your web app's UI there are areas that your tests interact with. A Page Object simply models these as objects within the test code. This reduces the amount of duplicated code and means that if the UI changes, the fix need only be applied in one place.

Event and Listeners in Java?
Ans:
Events are basically occurrence of something. Changing the state of an object is known as an event.
We can perform some important tasks at the occurrence of these exceptions, such as counting total and current logged-in users, creating tables of the database at time of deploying the project, creating database connection object etc.
There are many Event classes and Listener interfaces in the javax.servlet and javax.servlet.http packages.
Event classes
The event classes are as follows:
ServletRequestEvent
ServletContextEvent
ServletRequestAttributeEvent
ServletContextAttributeEvent
HttpSessionEvent
HttpSessionBindingEvent
Event interfaces
The event interfaces are as follows:
ServletRequestListener
ServletRequestAttributeListener
ServletContextListener
ServletContextAttributeListener
HttpSessionListener
HttpSessionAttributeListener
HttpSessionBindingListener
HttpSessionActivationListener
What is inheritance and where have you implemented that in your framework?
Ans:
Inheritance is a mechanism in which one object acquires all the properties and behaviors of parent object.
The idea behind inheritance is that you can create new classes that are built upon existing classes. When you inherit from an existing class, you reuse (or inherit) methods and fields, and you add new methods and fields to adapt your new class to new situations.
　　　　Inheritance represents the IS-A relationship.
In our framework we have created a class with method name “OpenBrowser” which inherit the functionality of “Driver” class for different browsers.

How do you handle dynamic element in Selenium?
Ans:
starts-with
if your dynamic element's ids have the format  where button id="continue-12345"  where 12345 is a dynamic number you could use the following
XPath: //button[starts-with(@id, 'continue-')]
contains
Sometimes an element gets identfied by a value that could be surrounded by other text, then contains function can be used.
To demonstrate, the element can be located based on the ‘suggest’ class without having to couple it with the ‘top’ and ‘business’ classes using the following
XPath: //input[contains(@class, 'suggest')].

How will you stop the instance of driver after completion of test script?
Ans:    The quit() method will kill the WebDriver instance.
　　　　driver.quit();
Explain WebDriver.
Ans:
WebDriver is designed to provide a simpler, more concise programming interface in addition to addressing some limitations in the Selenium-RC API. Selenium-WebDriver was developed to better support dynamic web pages where elements of a page may change without the page itself being reloaded. WebDriver’s goal is to supply a well-designed object-oriented API that provides improved support for modern advanced web-app testing problems.

How to find user defined objects as a key from LinkedHashMap?
Ans:
　　　　We can achieve this by implementing equals and hash code methods at the user defined objects.
publicclassMyObjectKeySearch {

publicstaticvoidmain(String a[]){
        
        LinkedHashMap<Price, String> hm = newLinkedHashMap<Price, String>();
        hm.put(newPrice("Banana", 20), "Banana");
        hm.put(newPrice("Apple", 40), "Apple");
        hm.put(newPrice("Orange", 30), "Orange");
        printMap(hm);
        Price key = newPrice("Banana", 20);
        System.out.println("Does key available? "+hm.containsKey(key));
    }
    
    publicstaticvoidprintMap(LinkedHashMap<Price, String> map){
        
        Set<Price> keys = map.keySet();
        for(Price p:keys){
            System.out.println(p+"==>"+map.get(p));
        }
    }
}

classPrice{
    
    privateString item;
    privateintprice;
    
    publicPrice(String itm, intpr){
        this.item = itm;
        this.price = pr;
    }
    
    publicinthashCode(){
        System.out.println("In hashcode");
        inthashcode = 0;
        hashcode = price*20;
        hashcode += item.hashCode();
        returnhashcode;
    }
    
    publicbooleanequals(Object obj){
        System.out.println("In equals");
        if(obj instanceofPrice) {
            Price pp = (Price) obj;
            return(pp.item.equals(this.item) && pp.price == this.price);
        } else{
            returnfalse;
        }
    }
    
    publicString getItem() {
        returnitem;
    }
    publicvoidsetItem(String item) {
        this.item = item;
    }
    publicintgetPrice() {
        returnprice;
    }
    publicvoidsetPrice(intprice) {
        this.price = price;
    }
    
    publicString toString(){
        return"item: "+item+"  price: "+price;
    }
}

Explain quick sort.
Ans:
Quicksort or partition-exchange sort, is a fast sorting algorithm, which is using divide and conquer algorithm. Quicksort first divides a large list into two smaller sub-lists: the low elements and the high elements. Quicksort can then recursively sort the sub-lists.
Steps to implement Quick sort:
1) Choose an element, called pivot, from the list. Generally pivot can be the middle index element.
2) Reorder the list so that all elements with values less than the pivot come before the pivot, while all elements with values greater than the pivot come after it (equal values can go either way). After this partitioning, the pivot is in its final position. This is called the partition operation.
3) Recursively apply the above steps to the sub-list of elements with smaller values and separately the sub-list of elements with greater values.
public class MyQuickSort {

    private int array[];
    private int length;

    public void sort(int[] inputArr) {

        if (inputArr == null || inputArr.length == 0) {
            return;
        }
        this.array = inputArr;
        length = inputArr.length;
        quickSort(0, length - 1);
    }

    private void quickSort(int lowerIndex, int higherIndex) {

What do you know about Jenkins?
Ans:
Jenkins is one open source tool to perform continuous integration. The basic functionality of Jenkins is to monitor a version control system and to start and monitor a build system (for example, Apache Ant or Maven) if changes occur. Jenkins monitors the whole build process and provides reports and notifications to alert maintainers on success or errors.
Jenkins can be extended by additional plug-ins, e.g., for building and testing Android applications.
What are different ways in which you can generate the reports of TestNG results?
Ans:
Listeners: For implementing a listener class, the class has to implement the org.testng.ITestListener interface. These classes are notified at runtime by TestNG when the test starts, finishes, fails, skips, or passes.
Reporters: For implementing a reporting class, the class has to implement an org.testng.IReporter interface. These classes are called when the whole suite run ends. The object containing the information of the whole test run is passed to this class when called.
How to get screen shot in WebDriver?

9. how do you check whether a certain element/text/title is present in your webpage using webdriver(as if we do verifyText/verifyTitle in IDE)
can anyone provide answers for all these question.....
Answer:::::::::::::::
1 and 2 that's u need to explain as per ur proj.
3- data driven, keyword driven, modular driven, function driven, hybrid driven and page object model.
4- if it is related to page load then we can say implicit wait for page we can use- driver.manage().timeouts().pageLoadTimeout(arg0, arg1)
5- write any simple program and use all locators.
ex- driver.findElement(By.id(" ")) etc.
6- Iterator<String> windows = driver.getWindowHandles().iterator();
String main = windows.next();
String child = windows.next();
driver.switchTo().window(child);
7- i think they have asked for the command which we used to run the suite thru command promt so the command is-
java -cp bin;jars/* org.testng.TestNG testng.xml
8- Reverse a given statement
Input: “This is a book”
Output: “book a is This”
Ans- class Reverse{
public static void main(String args[]) {
String input = "This is a book";
String output = "";
int l=input.length();
int j =0;
for(int i=l-1; i>=0; i--){
j++;
if(input.charAt(i)==' '){
output = output+input.substring(i+1, l)+" ";
l = l-j;
j=0;
}
if(i==0 && input.charAt(i)!=0){
output = output+input.substring(i, l);
}
}
System.out.println(output);
}
}

EBAY InterView Questions
====================================================
TESTNG QUESTIONS ASKED IN EBAY
1. What is the use of TestNG/Junit ?
2. What is parameterized testing?
3. How can u achieve parameterized testing using TestNG?
With the help of 2 annotations @Parameters and @Dataprovider.
4. Can you map test method names in XML file along with class names?
Yes, we can do it please see below ex:
<classes>
<class name="test.IndividualMethodsTest">
<methods>
<include name="testMethod" />
</methods>
</class>
</classes>

5. Sequence of execution of below annotations:
@Test
@BeforeGroups
@AfterGroups
@BeforeSuite
@AfterSuite
@BeforeMethod
@AfterMethod
@BeforeClass
@AfterClass

6. What is Yaml file?
TestNG supports YAML as an alternate way of specifying your suite file.You might find the YAML file format easier to read and to maintain. YAML files are also recognized by the TestNG Eclipse plug-in.

7. How will you execute only selected test methods in particular Test class?
8. How do you fail test cases in TestNg?
9. Can we execute test cases parallely in TestNg?
10. How can we control the order of test method invocation?
We need to create Dependency.
TestNG allows you to specify dependencies either with annotations or in XML.:
You can use the attributes dependsOnMethods or dependsOnGroups, found on the @Test annotation.
Alternatively, you can specify your group dependencies in the testng.xml file. You use the <dependencies> tag to achieve this:

11. How can you make sure test methods which are run in a certain order doesn't really depend on the success of others ?
By adding "alwaysRun=true" in your @Test annotation.
