Abstraction simplifies complex systems by hiding details, while encapsulation restricts access to data and methods.
Abstraction focuses on the essential qualities of an object, ignoring irrelevant details. Example: A car's interface (steering wheel, pedals) abstracts the complex mechanics.
Encapsulation bundles data and methods that operate on that data within a single unit (class), restricting access to some compon...

Use driver.switchTo().frame() method to switch to a frame by index, name, or WebElement
To switch back to the default content, use driver.switchTo().defaultContent()
Nested frames can be handled by switching to parent frame first before switching to child frame

Program to add values into a hashmap in Java.
Create a new HashMap object.
Use the put() method to add key-value pairs into the hashmap.

- Ans.
Overriding allows a subclass to provide a specific implementation of a method already defined in its superclass.
Overriding occurs when a subclass has a method with the same name and parameters as a method in its superclass.
It enables polymorphism, allowing a subclass to define behavior specific to its type.
Example in Java: A superclass 'Animal' has a method 'sound()', and a subclass 'Dog' overrides it to provide a spec...

Abstraction simplifies complex systems by hiding details, while encapsulation restricts access to data and methods.
Abstraction focuses on the essential qualities of an object, ignoring irrelevant details. Example: A car's interface (steering wheel, pedals) abstracts the complex mechanics.

I applied via Campus Placement and was interviewed before Aug 2021. There were 3 interview rounds.
The first round was an aptitude test with questions ranging from basic mathematical concepts to logical/analytical questions. English was also included in the test. The difficulty was medium and I was able to solve 70-80% of the questions.
Two coding questions were the part of the test. I was supposed to solve and pass all the test cases for both the questions. The coding questions tested my knowledge in the field of arrays, loops and pointers. I was able to solve one and partially solve another.
