DAY 17 : Automation Testing Interview Questions

/Junaid Aziz /Qasim Nazir


On Weekend

Q : How can you fetch data from an Excel sheet programmatically?


Ans :
Using Java (Apache POI Library):

Apache POI is a popular library for working with Excel files in Java.

Workbook workbook = WorkbookFactory.create(fis);

break;
case NUMERIC:

break;

Q : Write a code for radio button?

Ans :

public class RadioButtonExample {

// Set the path to the ChromeDriver

/Junaid Aziz /Qasim Nazir


On Weekend

// Open the HTML page

@value='male']"));
maleRadioButton.click();

@value='female']"));
femaleRadioButton.click();

WebElement otherRadioButton =

driver.quit();
}
}
}

Q : What is the difference between findElement and findElements in Selenium?


Ans :
findElement
 Purpose: Locates the first matching element on the webpage.
 Return Type: Returns a single WebElement.
 Behavior if No Element Found: Throws a NoSuchElementException if the specified element
is not found.
 Usage: Best suited when you are sure that there will be only one matching element or you
only care about the first occurrence of the element.

Example :

searchBox.sendKeys("Selenium WebDriver");

findElements

 Purpose: Locates all matching elements on the webpage.


 Return Type: Returns a List of WebElements (List<WebElement>).
 Behavior if No Element Found: Returns an empty list (List<WebElement> with size 0)
instead of throwing an exception.
 Usage: Best suited when you need to find multiple elements or verify the presence of
elements.

Example:

for (WebElement link : links) {

Q : What is an interface in Java, and how is it used?


Ans :
An interface in Java is a blueprint of a class that defines a contract for what a class must do, but not how
it does it. It is a mechanism to achieve abstraction and multiple inheritance in Java. Interfaces can
contain:

 Abstract methods: Methods without implementation (prior to Java 8).


 Static methods: Fully implemented methods that belong to the interface (introduced in Java
8).
 Default methods: Fully implemented methods that can be overridden by implementing
classes (introduced in Java 8).
 Constants: Variables declared in an interface are implicitly public, static, and final.

default void defaultMethod() {

static void staticMethod() {

Q : Explain method overloading and method overriding with examples.


Ans : 1.

Method Overloading
Definition:
Method overloading allows a class to have multiple methods with the same name but different
parameter lists (number, type, or order of parameters).

Key Points:

 Happens within the same class.


 Return type does not matter; only the parameter list is considered.
 Provides compile-time (static) polymorphism.

public double add(double a, double b) {

public class Main {

/Junaid Aziz /Qasim Nazir


On Weekend

System.out.println(calc.add(5, 10)); // Calls add(int, int)

}
}

2. Method Overriding

Definition:
Method overriding allows a subclass to provide a specific implementation for a method that is
already defined in its superclass.

Key Points:

 Happens between a superclass and a subclass.


 The method in the subclass must have:
o The same name, return type, and parameters as the method in the superclass.
 Provides runtime (dynamic) polymorphism.
 Requires inheritance.

 Requires inheritance.

Rules for Overriding:


1. Access Modifier: The overriding method cannot have a more restrictive access modifier than

the overridden method. For example, if the superclass method is protected, the subclass
method cannot be private.
2. Annotations: Use @Override to indicate the method is overridden (optional but
recommended).
3. Exceptions: The overriding method cannot throw a broader exception than the overridden
method.
4. Static/Final Methods: Cannot be overridden.

class Animal {

public void sound() {

public class Main {

myAnimal.sound(); // Calls Animal's sound()

Animal myDog = new Dog();


myDog.sound(); // Calls Dog's sound()
