What is the function of the BeanFactory interface in Spring?

The correct answer is A: To create and manage bean instances with lazy initialization capability. BeanFactory is the core interface for accessing beans, providing lazy initialization. ApplicationContext extends BeanFactory with additional enterprise features.

What is a daemon thread in Java?

The correct answer is A: A thread that runs in the background and doesn't prevent JVM shutdown. A daemon thread runs in the background and doesn't prevent the JVM from exiting. When all non-daemon threads finish, the JVM exits even if daemon threads are running.

Consider the code: abstract class Animal { abstract void sound(); void sleep() { System.out.println("Zzz"); } } class Dog extends Animal { void sound() { System.out.println("Bark"); } } What can Dog objects do?

The correct answer is C: Call both sound() and sleep(). Dog inherits the concrete method sleep() from Animal and provides implementation for the abstract method sound(). Therefore, Dog objects can call both methods.

A Spring application requires constructor-based dependency injection for a mandatory dependency. Which approach is best?

The correct answer is B: @Autowired on constructor. Constructor-based DI ensures mandatory dependencies are provided at object creation time and is considered a best practice for required dependencies.

In Java 2024, if you need a collection that automatically removes entries based on garbage collection patterns, which would you choose?

The correct answer is A: WeakHashMap. WeakHashMap uses weak references for keys. When a key is no longer referenced elsewhere, it becomes eligible for garbage collection and is automatically removed from the map.

Q.1 Easy Generics

When using bounded type parameters with multiple interfaces, what is the correct syntax in Java?

Correct Answer: A.

EXPLANATION

Java uses ampersand (&) to combine multiple bounds. The class must appear first, followed by interfaces. Commas, pipes, and 'implements' keyword are not valid syntax for type parameter bounds.

Test

Q.2 Easy Generics

In a Spring Boot application, you need to create a generic repository interface that works with any entity type. Which declaration correctly implements this pattern?

A public interface GenericRepository { T findById(Long id); void save(T entity); }

B public interface GenericRepository { Object findById(Long id); void save(Object entity); }

C public interface GenericRepository { T findById(Long id); void save(T entity); }

D public interface GenericRepository { T findById(K id); void save(T entity); }

Correct Answer: A. public interface GenericRepository { T findById(Long id); void save(T entity); }

EXPLANATION

Option A uses single type parameter T for entity type, which is the standard pattern for generic repositories. Option C is redundant (all classes extend Object), and Option D adds unnecessary complexity.

Test

Q.3 Easy Generics

Which declaration is valid in Java Generics?

A List list = new ArrayList();

B List list = new ArrayList();

C List list = new ArrayList();

D List

Correct Answer: B. List list = new ArrayList();

EXPLANATION

Generics only work with reference types, not primitive types. Integer is the wrapper class for int, making option B valid.

Test

Q.4 Easy Generics

Which of the following correctly declares a generic method that returns the first element of any collection?

A public T getFirst(Collection collection)

B public T getFirst(Collection collection)

C public T getFirst(Collection collection)

D public Collection getFirst(T collection)

Correct Answer: B. public T getFirst(Collection collection)

EXPLANATION

Generic methods require type parameter declaration before return type. The collection parameter must be of type Collection<T> to extract element of type T.

Test

Q.5 Easy Generics

What will be the output of the following code?
java
List list = new ArrayList();
list.add("Java");
Object obj = list;
System.out.println(list.getClass() == obj.getClass());

A true

B false

C Compilation error

D Runtime exception

Correct Answer: A. true

EXPLANATION

Generic type information is erased at runtime. Both list and obj refer to the same ArrayList class, so getClass() returns the same class object.

Test

Q.6 Easy Generics

What is the relationship between generics and arrays in Java?

A Generic arrays can be created freely like List[]

B Generic arrays are not supported; you cannot create arrays of parameterized types

C Generic arrays work only with unbounded wildcards

D Arrays of generics work only for primitive types

Correct Answer: B. Generic arrays are not supported; you cannot create arrays of parameterized types

EXPLANATION

Java does not allow creation of arrays with parameterized types due to type erasure. List<String>[] would be unsafe. You must use List<String>[] or List[] instead.

Test

Q.7 Easy Generics

What does the wildcard in List represent?

A Any type, with full read and write capabilities

B Any type, but with restricted capabilities - can only read as Object

C Unknown type that extends Object

D A placeholder for generic type parameter

Correct Answer: B. Any type, but with restricted capabilities - can only read as Object

EXPLANATION

List<?> represents unknown type with read-only capabilities. Elements can only be read as Object. You cannot add elements (except null) due to type safety.

Test

Q.8 Easy Generics

What is the compiler-inferred type parameter in this call?
List list = Arrays.asList("a", "b", "c");

A T is inferred as Object

B T is inferred as String

C T is inferred as ? extends String

D T is inferred as ? super String

Correct Answer: B. T is inferred as String

EXPLANATION

The compiler infers the most specific common type of the arguments. Since all arguments are String literals, T is inferred as String.

Test

Q.9 Easy Generics

What is the result of type erasure in Java generics?

A Generic type information is preserved at runtime

B All generic type information is removed at compile time, replaced with raw types or bounds

C Generic types are converted to Object only

D Type erasure only applies to wildcards

Correct Answer: B. All generic type information is removed at compile time, replaced with raw types or bounds

EXPLANATION

Type erasure removes all generic type parameters during compilation. For unbounded types, they're replaced with Object; for bounded types, they're replaced with the upper bound.

Test

Q.10 Easy Generics

Which of the following is a valid generic class declaration in Java?

A public class Box { }

B public class Box { }

C public class Box { }

D public class Box { }

Correct Answer: A. public class Box { }

EXPLANATION

Valid generic class declarations allow multiple type parameters with upper bounds. Option A is syntactically correct. Option C uses invalid 'super' keyword in class declaration. Option D has malformed syntax.
