Description
During the development process, when you are writing code, how do you go about creating test cases? Can you describe how you address edge cases to ensure the robustness of your code?
1. Analytical Thinking : Analyzing the problem to create relevant test cases and address edge cases requires strong analytical abilities.
2. Attention to Detail : Creating test cases necessitates a keen attention to detail to cover all possible scenarios, including edge cases.
3. Problem Solving : The ability to identify and solve for edge cases in testing showcases problem-solving skills.
4. Technical Proficiency : Demonstrates your understanding of the code and the ability to foresee potential issues before they arise.
1. Evaluate Technical Understanding : Assess how well you understand the software development and testing process.
2. Gauge Problem Identification : Understand your ability to foresee and address potential issues in code.
3. Assess Risk Management : Determine your approach to mitigating risks associated with bugs or failures by addressing edge cases.
4. Check for Thoroughness : Observe the extent to which you are thorough in testing all aspects of your code.
1. Discuss Time Complexity : Explain how you ensure test cases cover not just functionality but also performance under different scenarios.
2. Mention Different Testing Types : Detail the various types of testing you perform, such as unit tests, integration tests, system tests, or acceptance tests.
3. Talk About Past Experiences : If you have previous experience, mention a specific instance where you identified and addressed an edge case.
