Enterprise Application Structure Patterns

Subject : it-skills
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. An object that doesn't contain all of the data you need but knows how to get it.






2. Stores session data as commited data in the database.






3. Splits user interface interaction into three distinct roles.






4. An in-memory representation of tabular data.






5. An object that carries data between processes in order to reduce the number of method calls.






6. An object that sets up a communication between two independent objects.






7. An object that encapsulates access to an external system or resource.






8. A structure to organize database mappers that handle inheritance hierarchies.






9. Prevents conflicts between concurrent business transactions by allowing only one business transaction at a time to access data.






10. Stores session state on the client.






11. Maintains a list of objects affected by a business transaction and coordiantes the writing out of changes and the resolution of concurrency problems.






12. Represents an inheritance hierarchy of classes with one table for each class.






13. A subclass that provides special behavior for particular cases.






14. Prevents conflicts between concurrent business transactions by detecting a conflict and rolling back the transaction.






15. A type that acts as the supertype for all types in its layer.






16. Defines an interface in a seperate package from its implementation.






17. Locks a set of related objects with a single lock.






18. Saves a graph of objects by serializing them into a single large object (LOB) which stores it in a database field.






19. Saves an association as a table with foreign keys to the tables that are linked by the association.






20. An object that acts as a Gateway to a single record in a data source. There is one instance per row.






21. An object that wraps a row in a database table or view - encapsulates the database access and adds domain logic on that data.






22. An object model of the domain that incorporates both behavior and data.






23. A small simple object - like money or a date range - whose equality isn't based on identity.






24. An object that sets up a communication between two independent objects.






25. Links classes during configuration rather than compilation.






26. Allows framework or layer supertype code to acquire offline locks.






27. A centralized point for handling screen navigation and the flow of an application.






28. Maps an association between objects to a foreign key reference between tables.






29. A well-known object that other objects can use to find common objects and services.






30. Maps an object into several fields of another object's table.






31. Represents an inheritance hierarchy of classes as a single table that has columns for all the fields of the various classes.






32. A single instance that handles the business logic for all rows in a database table or view.






33. Defines an application's boundary with a layer of services that establishes a set of available operations and coordinates the application's response in each operation.






34. An object that acts as a Gateway to a database table. One instance handles all the rows in the table.






35. Organizes business logic by procedures where each procedure handles a single request from the presentation.






36. Keeps the session state on a server system in a serialized form.






37. Provides a coarse-grained facade on fine-grained objects to improve efficiency over a network.






38. A layer of Mappers that moves data between objects and a database while keeping them independent of each other and the mapper itself.






39. A view that proceses domain data element by element and transforms it into HTML.






40. Ensures that each object gets loaded only once by keeping every loaded object in a map. Looks up objects using the map when referring to them.






41. An object that handles a request for a specific page or action on a Web site.






42. Saves the database ID field in an object to maintain identity between an in-memory object and a database row.






43. Removes dependence upon problematic services during testing.






44. Represents a monetary value.






45. Renders information into HTML by embedding markers in an HTML page.






46. Has one class perform the database mapping for a child class.






47. An object that represents a database query.






48. Mediates between the domain and data mapping layers using a collection-like interfacefor accessing domain objects.






49. Turns domain data into HTML in two steps: first by forming some kind of logical page - then rendering the logical page into HTML.






50. A controller that handles all requests for a Web site.
