What is the mandatory special project member MyEclipse includes in the directory structure while creating a Web Application?

  1. .mymetadata file

  2. .myeclipse folder

  3. an ejb-jar.xml file

  4. An application.xml
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

When creating a Web Application in MyEclipse, the .mymetadata file is automatically added to the project structure. This file stores MyEclipse-specific configuration and deployment settings for the web application. The .myeclipse folder and deployment descriptors like ejb-jar.xml serve different purposes.

What is the content of .mymetadata file?

  1. It defines MyEclipse-specific information such as the location of the web-root folder and other important details required by MyEclipse web tools for their proper operation.

  2. It is an optional file and may contain some project related information.

  3. It is an empty folder to cache information.

  4. None of these
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

The .mymetadata file is a configuration file generated by MyEclipse to store project-specific metadata, such as the context root, web-root folder location, and project type, which are required for deployment and tooling operations.

Inversion of control id also known as

  1. Interface Injection

  2. Setter Injection

  3. Constructoir Injection

  4. Constructor Arguments
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A,B,C Correct answer
Explanation

Inversion of Control/Dependency Injection in Spring can be implemented through three main types: Interface Injection (where dependencies are injected through interfaces), Setter Injection (through setter methods), and Constructor Injection (through constructor parameters).

B,E Correct answer
Explanation

In Java web.xml deployment descriptors: (A) is false - servlet elements are optional. (B) is true - is a child of . (C) is false - the root element is , not . (D) is false - servlet and servlet-mapping elements can be in any order. (E) is true - at least one element must be present. The correct answers are B and E.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which of the following is not a Key Objective of the Business Architecture Phase B of TOGAF ADM

  1. Describe Baseline Business Architecture

  2. To Select relevant tools and techniques to be used in association with selected view points

  3. To Select the relevant architecture view points that will enable the Architect to demonstrate how the stake holder concerns are addressed in Business Architecture

  4. To Define the Business Requirements

  5. All of the Above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Phase B Business Architecture focuses on describing the baseline and target architectures, selecting tools and viewpoints, and addressing stakeholder concerns. Defining business requirements happens in earlier phases (Preliminary/Phase A), making D the exception.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which of the following is not a tool set used for Business Modeling

  1. Business Process Models

  2. Use-Case Models

  3. Class Models

  4. Information Exchange Matrix

  5. Traceability Matrix
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
E Correct answer
Explanation

Business Process Models, Use-Case Models, Class Models, and Information Exchange Matrix are all modeling techniques for capturing business aspects. The Traceability Matrix is a requirements management tool for tracking requirements to implementations, not a business modeling tool.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which of the following is a suggested step for Gap analysis

  1. Process Gap

  2. Tools Gaps

  3. Financial Gaps

  4. Information Gaps

  5. No one of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
E Correct answer
Explanation

The question asks which is NOT a suggested step for gap analysis. All the options listed (Process Gap, Tools Gaps, Financial Gaps, Information Gaps) are valid gap types that should be analyzed. Since none of them should be excluded from gap analysis, E (none of the above) is correct.

Multiple choice technology testing

Defect Management process does not include

  1. Deliverable base-lining

  2. Defect prevention

  3. Management reporting

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Defect Management focuses on tracking logged defects after they're found, not preventing them upfront. The process includes defect prevention activities, management reporting, and tracking - but deliverable base-lining is a configuration management activity, not part of defect management workflow.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which of the following is input to Phase B ADM in TOGAF

  1. Refined statements of business goals and strategic drivers

  2. Architecture Principles

  3. Baseline Technology Architecture

  4. Target Application Architecture

  5. All of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
E Correct answer
Explanation

Phase B (Business Architecture) of TOGAF ADM receives inputs from the Preliminary Phase and Phase A. These include refined business goals, Architecture Principles, and the existing baseline architectures (Technology and Application). All listed items are valid inputs to Business Architecture work.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which of the following is not a Key step in Phase B of TOGAF ADM

  1. Create Architecture Models

  2. Conduct a review workshop with Known Industry experts

  3. Identify Reference Models, View points and Tools

  4. Develop Baseline business architecture description

  5. Select Business Architecture Building Blocks
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
B Correct answer
Explanation

Phase B steps include developing baseline descriptions, selecting building blocks, identifying reference models/tools, and creating architecture models. Conducting external expert workshops is not a documented TOGAF ADM step - this would be part of stakeholder engagement, not a formal ADM phase step.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which of the following is not an out put of Business Architecture Phase of TOGAF ADM

  1. Business Services

  2. Business Functions

  3. Business Process, including measures and deliverables

  4. Key business Goals

  5. Updated business requirement
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
D Correct answer
Explanation

Business Architecture outputs include Business Services, Functions, Processes (with measures), and updated requirements. Key business goals are INPUTS to Phase B from Phase A, not outputs. The phase delivers architecture descriptions, not the goals themselves.

Defect Management process does not include

  1. Deliverable base-lining

  2. Defect prevention

  3. Management reporting

  4. None of the above
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
A Correct answer
Explanation

Defect management involves preventing defects, managing the lifecycle of found defects, and providing management visibility. Deliverable base-lining (A) is a configuration management practice for version control, not part of tracking and resolving defects. Prevention (B), reporting (C), and process management are all core to defect management. Option D (None of the above) is incorrect since A is indeed not included.

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which of the following statements are not true

  1. A Key objective of the Phase B is reuse of the existing software components available in the existing applications.

  2. As a Part of the Phase B, the Architecture team will need to consider what relevant Business Architecture resources are available from the enterprise continuum

  3. Knowledge of Bsiness architecture is a prerequisite for architecture work in any other domain.

  4. The normal approach to Target Architecture development is top-down

  5. In Practical terms, the business architecture is also often necessary as a means of demonstrating the business value of subsequent Technical Architecture work to key stake holders

Multiple choice technology architecture

Which of the following is not aKey step in Phase A of TOGAF ADM

  1. Establish the Project

  2. Define Scope

  3. Create Architecture Models

  4. Review Architecture Principles including business principles

  5. Identify Business Goals and Drivers
Reveal answer Fill a bubble to check yourself
C Correct answer
Explanation

TOGAF ADM Phase A (Architecture Vision) focuses on preparation: establishing the project (A), scoping (B), reviewing principles (D), and identifying business goals (E). Creating detailed architecture models (C) happens in later phases (B, C, D) when developing specific domain architectures. Phase A is about vision and preparation, not detailed modeling. The marked answer C is correct - modeling is not a key step in Phase A.
