📌 Round 1 – Technical
API Testing • Cache vs Cookies • How do you delete cookies? • HTTP status codes: 500, 501, 502, 503, 504 • 502 vs 504 — what’s the difference? • Types of authentication; OAuth 1.0 vs 2.0 • Write a GET request in Rest Assured • Pass query & path parameters in Rest Assured • Implement Basic Auth in Rest Assured
Selenium & Automation • Types of Selenium locators • Initialize WebDriver (with syntax) • Open a new browser window without clicking any element • Get the page title without getTitle() • What is invocation Count in TestNG? • Write a TestNG test using invocation Count to fetch page title without getTitle() • Write XPath for a dynamic element
📌 Round 2 – Technical + Managerial
• Walk through your patent and your contribution • Coding: count unique characters until the first repeated character Input: “Harshit” → Output: 4 • Verification vs Validation • POST API called 10x and PUT API called 10x — what happens in each scenario? • How do you use AI tools like Cursor and Claude at work? • If AI can generate automation scripts, why are Test Engineers still needed?
📌 Round 3 – Technical
• Walk through your project — architecture & responsibilities • Deep dive into implementation decisions and your contributions • SQL joins — write queries for different join types • What is SQL Injection, and how do you prevent it? • Scenario-based API testing questions • A production bug you handled and how you resolved it • Your approach to Root Cause Analysis (RCA)
