Test your basic knowledge |

SWA - Software Architecture

Instructions:
  • Answer 50 questions in 15 minutes.
  • If you are not ready to take this test, you can study here.
  • Match each statement with the correct term.
  • Don't refresh. All questions and answers are randomly picked and ordered every time you load a test.

This is a study tool. The 3 wrong answers for each question are randomly chosen from answers to other questions. So, you might find at times the answers obvious, but you will see it re-enforces your understanding as you take the test each time.
1. What is part of the current scope.






2. Will execute all code paths and boundary conditions.






3. When doing a - precise task.






4. Invalid or unexpected input that the program is not designed to process.






5. Breaks encapsulation boundaries.






6. Ability to withstand change and what the effects are.






7. Downloads your changes and then merges.






8. Ability to treat a class object as a function by overloading the () operator.






9. Allow an object to alter its behavior when its internal state changes. The object will appear to change its class.






10. Create a test and then create a function.






11. CONSTANT






12. Figure out what is feasible. Decide whether to use API's or to write from scratch.






13. Encapsulates a request as an object - thereby letting you parameterize clients with different requests - queue or log requests - and support undoable operations.






14. Taking code and moving it to a function that usually returns an object. They are always virtual functions.






15. When a conflict is fixed.






16. Uploads all changes staged in the index list into the repository database.






17. Initialized heap memory.






18. Freed heap memory.






19. Allows you to switch your working copy to another branch.






20. A collection of memory addresses for all virtual functions in an objects class hierarchy.






21. How many objects that a source object can legitimately reference.






22. Undo changes made since your last commit.






23. Allows consumers to try a system earlier and give early feedback.






24. A type of library that is used by the code






25. When a .cpp file is compiled - the header files are first included (recursively) by the pre-processor. This block of code is called a ______________.






26. The default nickname for the remote repository.






27. One of the linking methods (pragma comment)






28. A set of creation and initialization steps useful for a set of different related tests.






29. 2 Eyes + 2 Minds = AWESOME!






30. Link multiple projects together






31. Having power over inheritance with the flexibility of composition.






32. You have to tell it to link






33. Creates a spin-off of a repository for concurrent development.






34. When a concrete class inherits from a pure interface.






35. Application






36. Plan out your code.






37. Keeps a team using a similar naming convention for things.






38. Default branch within your repository.






39. Uploads changes to your current branch.






40. Use this to find a memory address or signiture in a dll






41. Whats displayed to the screen






42. When exporting a dll - the names of the functions are changed. This is knwon as ____________.






43. Symbols that can be invoked or used by other code in a different unit. All non inline class member functions and variables - non-static non-member functions and variables defined within a .cpp file






44. Static in C++. Can span all instances of a class.






45. Code whatever it is you need to code.






46. Stops when memory changes.






47. A measure of logical dependency.






48. Separating out a section of code into a reusable function or class.






49. Current view/ previous line.






50. Ask questions and obtain the details and requirements given.
