String & StringBuffer & StringBuilder


**** String ****

-> String is immutable  ( once created can not be changed )object.
   The object created as a String is stored in the  Constant String Pool  .
   Every immutable object in Java is thread safe ,that implies String is also thread safe .
   String can not be used by two threads simultaneously.
   String  once assigned can not be changed.


**** StringBuffer  ***

-> StringBuffer is mutable means one can change the value of the object .
   The object created through StringBuffer is stored in the heap .
   StringBuffer  has the same methods as the StringBuilder ,
   but each method in StringBuffer is synchronized that is StringBuffer is thread safe .

****** StringBuilder ****

-> StringBuilder  is same as the StringBuffer ,
   that is it stores the object in heap and it can also be modified .
   The main difference between the StringBuffer and StringBuilder is that StringBuilder is also not thread safe.
   StringBuilder is fast as it is not thread safe .

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...

JAVA Expert Interview Questions Answers 2017

Java Basics ::  Interview Questions and Answers Home  »  Interview Questions  »  Technical Interview  »  Java Basics  » Interview Questions 1.     What is the difference between a constructor and a method? A constructor is a member function of a class that is used to create objects of that class. It has the same name as the class itself, has no return type, and is invoked using the new operator. A method is an ordinary member function of a class. It has its own name, a return type (which may be void), and is invoked using the dot operator. 2.     What is the purpose of garbage collection in Java, and when is it used? The purpose of garbage collection is to identify and discard objects that are no longer needed by a program so that their resources can be reclaimed and reused. A Java object is subject to garbage collection when it becomes unreachable to the program in which it is used. 3.  ...

Interview Questions in Core Java

Interview Questions in Core Java 1.what is a transient variable? A transient variable is a variable that may not be serialized. 2.which containers use a border Layout as their default layout? The window, Frame and Dialog classes use a border layout as their default layout. 3.Why do threads block on I/O? Threads block on i/o (that is enters the waiting state) so that other threads may execute while the i/o Operation is performed. 4. How are Observer and Observable used? Objects that subclass the Observable class maintain a list of observers. When an Observable object is updated it invokes the update() method of each of its observers to notify the observers that it has changed state. The Observer interface is implemented by objects that observe Observable objects. 5. What is synchronization and why is it important? With respect to multithreading, synchronization is the capability to control the access of multiple threads to shared resources. Without synchronization, it is ...
