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. A function that can load a library






2. Stand up meetings show who will be valuable and needed.






3. Connection between a local brand and a remote branch.






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






5. Initialized stack memory.






6. The process of deciding which function definition to link during run-time.






7. Use only through the interface of the object.






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






9. Code generation in a lib






10. A group of code. unnamed can only be accessed within that translation unit - name can be accessed anywhere






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






12. When doing a - precise task.






13. When GIT cannot merge your data.






14. Create a test and then create a function.






15. No man's land. Guard bytes before the after allocated heap memory.






16. Function doesn't exist.






17. Symbols that can not be accessed by code in other units have __________. These symbols are usually static non-member functions/variables defined within.c/.cpp or defined in an anonymous namespace.






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






19. A reference. Has and delete dynamic memory. implies ownership (Association does not).






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






21. Copies all changes from one branch into another branch.






22. Fix any problems and then repeat the process.






23. Undo changes made since your last commit.






24. Freed heap memory.






25. Reusing existing functionality by defining a relationship between two classes : Inheritance or containment.






26. 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






27. Portioning your changes to commit by inserting them into the index.






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






29. Bookmark of a revised set with a title. For easy checkouts.






30. No more than 40 hours to stop burnouts.






31. Do not optimize until the very end.






32. Downloads your changes and then merges.






33. A measure of logical dependency.






34. Compose objects into tree structures to represent part-whole hierarchies. Lets clients treat individual objects and compositions of objects uniformly.






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






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






37. Initialized heap memory.






38. Removes files from the repository.






39. The default nickname for the remote repository.






40. Trying to access a location in memory that your computer cannot access.






41. Always do the simplest design that could possibly work.






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






43. Application






44. About the interface to an object. Data contained within.






45. Classes build off of each other.






46. Linking to dynamic libraries is usually handled by linking to an ____________.






47. Ability to accept different types of parameters to bind to different implementations at run-time.






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






49. Ignores files when pushing.






50. Formatted code standards.
