Why use SonarQube?
       Sonar covers the 7 sections of code quality Architecture and Design
       Unit tests
       Duplicated code
       Potential bugs
       Complex code
       Coding standards
       Comments

What is role of database in SonarQube?
       Sonar uses a Derby or H2 as default database. When running Sonar, it says that these databases may only be used for evaluation. We can change this default database and use our custom DB.

What is SonarQube?
       It is an open source platform for Continuous Inspection of code quality.


What was the earlier name of SonarQube ?
       Sonar

Where does SonarQube help ?
       SonarQube provide report on coding standard , unit test, duplicate code, code coverage, potential bugs etc.


At which port sonar server is available by default ?
       9000



Does SonarQube only analysis java code ?
       No , SonarQube can analysis more than 20 languages.


In which language SonarQube is written ?

       SonarQube Scanner
       SonarQube Server
       SonarQube Database



What is the use of SonarQube Database ?
       SonarQube Database stores configuration of the SonarQube instance like security settings and they also store project quality snapshot.



What is the use of SonarQube Scanners ?
       It analyze projects on Continuous Integration Servers


Mention basic steps for SonarQube processing ?
       Developer develops code and sends its code into repository system like SCM, git
       An automatic build is fired in Continuous Integration Server and execution of SonarQube Scanner happens for SonarQube analysis.

Mockito interview Questions

1.       Question 1. What Is Mockito? Answer : Mockito allows creation of mock object for the purpose of Test Driven Development and Behavior Driven development. Unlike creating actual object, Mockito allows creation of fake object (external dependencies) which allows it to give consistent results to a given invocation. 2.       Question 2. Why Do We Need Mockito? What Are The Advantages? Answer : Mockito differentiates itself from the other testing framework by removing the expectation beforehand. So, by doing this, it reduces the coupling. Most of the testing framework works on the "expect-run-verify". Mockito allows it to make it "run-verify" framework. Mockito also provides annotation which allows to reduce the boilerplate code. 3.       Question 3. Can You Explain A Mockito Framework? Answer : In Mockito, you always check a particular class. The dependency in that class is injected using m...

REST Methods

GET ============================================= HTTP GET method is used to **read** (or retrieve) a representation of a resource. According to the design of the HTTP specification, GET requests are used only to read data and not change it. Therefore, when used this way, they are considered safe. That is, they can be called without risk of data modification or corruption. Means calling it once has the same effect as calling it 10 times. Additionally, GET is idempotent which means that making multiple identical requests ends up having the same result as a single request. Donot expose unsafe operations via GET. It should never modify any resources on the server. Example: ------------    GET http://www.example.com/customers/12345/orders POST =================================== -> The POST verb is most-often utilized to **create** new resources. In particular, it's used to create subordinate resources. -> That is, subordinate to some other (e.g. parent) reso...
