The code demonstrates exception handling, resulting in an output of 2 due to incrementing variable I in catch and finally blocks.
The code throws a NullPointerException which is caught in the catch block.
In the catch block, I is incremented from 0 to 1.
The finally block executes regardless of exception, incrementing I from 1 to 2.
The final output printed is the value of I, which is 2.

In a runner class, tags help organize and filter test cases for execution in automation testing frameworks.
Tags are used to categorize tests, e.g., @smoke, @regression.
They allow selective execution, e.g., running only @smoke tests.
Tags can be combined, e.g., @regression and @critical.
In Cucumber, tags are specified in the feature file, e.g., @login.
In TestNG, tags can be implemented using groups in XML configuration.
Regression testing checks existing features after changes, while smoke testing verifies basic functionality post-deployment.
Regression testing ensures that new code changes do not adversely affect existing functionalities.
Smoke testing is a preliminary test to check if the basic functions of an application work.
Example of regression testing: After a new feature is added, testing all existing features to ensure they sti...

Java programs with MCQ
The driver is typically initialized in the setup method of a test automation framework.
Driver initialization is usually done in a setup method before test execution.
Commonly used methods for driver initialization include WebDriverManager, System.setProperty, and driver instantiation.
Example: WebDriverManager.chromedriver().setup();
Driver can be both static and non-static depending on the context of its usage.
Driver class can be static if it is used to initiate the WebDriver instance in a test automation framework.
Driver class can be non-static if it is used as an instance variable within a test class.
Static driver can be accessed directly without creating an object of the class.
Non-static driver requires an object of the class to be created befo
Static variables belong to the class itself, while non-static variables belong to instances of the class.
Static variables are shared among all instances of a class
Non-static variables are unique to each instance of a class
Static variables are initialized only once, at the start of the program
Non-static variables are initialized separately for each instance of the class
Static and non-static have their own disadvantages in QA automation testing.
Static methods cannot be overridden or inherited, making it difficult to create flexible test cases.
Non-static methods require an instance of the class to be created, which can lead to increased memory usage.
Static methods can lead to tight coupling between classes, making it harder to maintain and update the code.
Non-static methods may have de...
TestNG allows parallel execution of test cases to save time and improve efficiency.
TestNG provides the 'parallel' attribute in the testng.xml file to specify the level of parallelism for test execution.
Parallel execution can be achieved at the test level, class level, method level, or suite level.
TestNG also supports parallel execution of tests across multiple classes or suites using the 'parallel' attribute in the sui...
Parallel testing in TestNG allows running tests concurrently for faster execution.
Use 'parallel' attribute in testng.xml file to specify parallel execution mode.
Set 'parallel' attribute to 'methods', 'classes', or 'tests' based on the level of parallelism needed.
Example: <suite name='MySuite' parallel='tests'>
Use 'thread-count' attribute to specify the number of threads to use for parallel execution.
Parallel methods run multiple methods concurrently within a single test, while parallel tests run multiple tests concurrently.
Parallel methods execute multiple methods within a single test class concurrently.
Parallel tests execute multiple test classes concurrently.
Parallel methods are useful for speeding up the execution of a single test, while parallel tests are useful for running multiple tests faster.

Use Rest Assured to upload a file
Use the given file path to create a File object
Use MultiPartSpecBuilder to build the request with the file
Send the request using Rest Assured's given(), when(), and post() methods
The parameter for a POST method in Postman is typically sent in the request body.
Parameters are sent in the request body in key-value pairs
Parameters can be sent as form-data, x-www-form-urlencoded, or raw JSON
Example: {"key": "value"}
Cucumber knows the step definition file based on the annotations provided in the feature files.
Cucumber uses annotations like @Given, @When, @Then to map steps in feature files to corresponding step definition methods.
Step definition files are typically placed in a separate package or directory within the project structure.
Cucumber scans the project directory for step definition files based on the package structure and
Parameters used in cucumber are used to pass values to the step definitions in feature files.
Parameters are defined in feature files using < > syntax
Parameters can be passed to step definitions using Regular Expressions
Parameters can be used to make scenarios more reusable and dynamic
Datatable in Cucumber is used to pass multiple sets of data to a step definition in a scenario.
Datatables are defined using pipes (|) to separate values
Each row in the datatable represents a set of data passed to the step definition
Datatables can be used for parameterization and data-driven testing
Yes, I have created the test plan document at the start of the project.
Yes, I always create a test plan document at the beginning of a project to outline the testing approach and strategy.
The test plan document includes details on scope, objectives, resources, schedule, and test cases.
It helps in ensuring that all stakeholders are aligned on the testing process and expectations.
For example, in my previous project, I cr...

Fibonacci sequence is a mathematical pattern where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones.
Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones.
The sequence starts with 1, 2, then each subsequent number is the sum of the two previous numbers (1+2=3, 2+3=5, 3+5=8, and so on).
This sequence is used in estimating because it reflects natural growth patterns found in natur
