A Technical Lead was asked
Q. Explain the Dependency Injection Principle.
Ans. 

Dependency Injection is a design pattern where components are given their dependencies rather than creating them internally.

  • Allows for easier testing by mocking dependencies

  • Promotes loose coupling between components

  • Improves code reusability and maintainability

  • Example: Constructor injection, Setter injection, Interface injection

A Technical Lead was asked
Q. What is the difference between Abstract Classes and Interfaces?
Ans. 

Abstract classes can have both abstract and non-abstract methods, while interfaces can only have abstract methods.

  • Abstract classes can have constructors, fields, and methods, while interfaces cannot.

  • A class can only extend one abstract class, but it can implement multiple interfaces.

  • Abstract classes are used to define a common behavior for subclasses, while interfaces are used to define a contract for classes to i...

Ans. 

Choosing between ADO.NET and Entity Framework Core for complex stored procedures depends on flexibility and performance needs.

  • ADO.NET provides more control and performance for complex stored procedures.

  • Entity Framework Core simplifies data access but may abstract away some stored procedure complexities.

  • If performance is critical, ADO.NET is preferred due to its direct database interaction.

  • For rapid development and...

A Technical Lead was asked
Q. What are the object-oriented principles?
Ans. 

Object oriented principles are a set of programming concepts that focus on objects and their interactions.

  • Encapsulation - bundling data and methods that operate on that data within a single unit

  • Inheritance - creating new classes from existing ones, inheriting their properties and methods

  • Polymorphism - ability of objects to take on many forms, allowing for flexibility and extensibility

  • Abstraction - hiding implement...
