Codd's rules are a set of 12 rules proposed by Edgar F. Codd to define what is required from a database management system to be considered relational.
Codd's rules were created to ensure that a database management system is truly relational.
Some of the key rules include the rule of data independence, rule of guaranteed access, and rule of comprehensive data sub-language.
An example of a Codd's rule is the rule of view up...

Use = '' to find BLANK values in a column
Example: SELECT * FROM table_name WHERE column_name IS NULL OR column_name = ''
Normalization is the process of organizing data in a database to reduce redundancy and improve data integrity.
Normalization involves breaking down data into smaller, more manageable parts.
It helps in reducing data redundancy by storing data in a structured manner.
Normalization ensures data integrity by avoiding anomalies like insertion, update, and deletion anomalies.
There are different normal forms like 1NF, 2NF, 3NF,...
The candidate is asked to write the outputs for all joins from a given scenario.
Inner join: Returns rows when there is a match in both tables
Left join: Returns all rows from the left table and the matched rows from the right table
Right join: Returns all rows from the right table and the matched rows from the left table
Full outer join: Returns all rows when there is a match in either table
CRUD stands for Create, Read, Update, Delete - the four basic functions of persistent storage.
Create - testing the ability to create new resources through API calls
Read - testing the ability to retrieve existing resources from the API
Update - testing the ability to modify existing resources through API calls
Delete - testing the ability to remove resources from the API
Set operators are used in SQL to perform operations on sets of data, such as union, intersect, and except.
Union - combines the results of two or more SELECT statements, removing duplicates
Intersect - returns the common rows between two SELECT statements
Except - returns the rows that are in the first SELECT statement but not in the second SELECT statement
Constraints faced in Data Validation with illustrations
1. Format constraints: Ensuring data follows a specific format (e.g. date in MM/DD/YYYY format)
2. Range constraints: Validating data falls within a specified range (e.g. age between 18-65)
3. Mandatory constraints: Ensuring required fields are not empty (e.g. email address field)
4. Consistency constraints: Checking data consistency across multiple fields (e.g. start...

Different validations in testing include input validation, boundary validation, error handling validation, and data validation.
Input validation ensures that the system accepts only valid inputs.
Boundary validation checks the system's behavior at the boundaries of valid input ranges.
Error handling validation verifies that the system handles errors gracefully.
Data validation ensures that the data processed by the system
Referential integrity is a database concept that ensures relationships between tables are maintained.
It ensures that foreign key values in one table match primary key values in another table.
It prevents orphaned records by enforcing constraints on relationships.
It helps maintain data consistency and accuracy.
Example: If a customer places an order, the customer ID in the orders table must exist in the customers table.
Data acquisition is the process of collecting and measuring information from various sources for analysis and storage.
Involves capturing data from sensors, instruments, or other devices
Can include sampling, digitizing, and processing data
Common in fields like scientific research, industrial automation, and environmental monitoring

DCL (Data Control Language) is used to control access to data in the database. Examp...
Transactional data refers to real-time data related to business transactions, while Master Data is the core data that is essential to operations.
Transactional data is dynamic and changes frequently, such as sales orders, invoices, and payments.
Master Data is static and remains unchanged over time, such as customer information, product details, and employee records.
