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. Plan out your code.






2. Are what function classes should include.






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






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






5. When a conflict is fixed.






6. When we remove redundant or obsolete designs and replace them with a new.






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






8. Will execute all code paths and boundary conditions.






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






10. Provide a unified interface to a set of interfaces in a subsystem. Defines a higher-level interface that makes the subsystem easier to use.






11. Classes build off of each other.






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






13. Concept based on limiting the scope of modules to provide better structures.






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






15. A measure of logical dependency.






16. Initialized stack memory.






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






18. Black Box - The way the program works is internally unknown.






19. 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






20. CONSTANT






21. What is part of the current scope.






22. Current line that is executing.






23. Simply a value.






24. Helps to eliminate unnecessary "include chaining."






25. Default branch within your repository.






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






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






28. Downloads without merging.






29. Downloads your changes and then merges.






30. 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.






31. NULL memory.






32. Meetings used to create a release plan - which will lay out the overall project.






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






34. Views all previous changes.






35. Try to find the flaws in your code.






36. Set of all pending changes.






37. STOP!!






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






39. Italicized in UML.






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






41. Removes files from the repository.






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






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






44. Weak relationship between two classes. Almost always results in a #include.






45. 2 Eyes + 2 Minds = AWESOME!






46. The linking is already done internally






47. Makes a project compile in order of who is dependent on what






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






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






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