Right Answer:
Adaptive AUTOSAR supports high-performance computing and service-oriented architecture by providing a flexible framework that allows for the deployment of applications on powerful hardware platforms. It utilizes a service-oriented architecture (SOA) that enables communication between distributed components through well-defined interfaces, facilitating the integration of complex applications and services. This architecture supports dynamic deployment and scalability, allowing for efficient resource management and high-performance processing in automotive systems.

Right Answer:
A Software Component (SWC) in AUTOSAR is a modular unit of software that encapsulates specific functionality and can communicate with other components through defined interfaces. It promotes reusability and separation of concerns in automotive software development.

Right Answer:
An ALV (ABAP List Viewer) report is a tool in SAP that allows for the display of data in a structured and interactive format. To create an ALV report in ABAP, follow these steps:

1. Use the function module `REUSE_ALV_GRID_DISPLAY` or `REUSE_ALV_LIST_DISPLAY`.
2. Define the data structure and internal table to hold the data.
3. Populate the internal table with data from the database.
4. Define field catalog for column headers and attributes.
5. Call the ALV function module, passing the internal table and field catalog as parameters.

This will generate an interactive report with sorting, filtering, and layout options.

Right Answer:
The RTE (Runtime Environment) handles sender-receiver communication by using a publish-subscribe mechanism. When a sender component sends a signal, the RTE routes this signal to the appropriate receiver components that are subscribed to it. The RTE ensures that data is transferred correctly and efficiently between the components, managing the communication and synchronization as needed.

Right Answer:
A Virtual Functional Bus (VFB) in AUTOSAR is an abstract representation of the communication between software components, allowing them to interact as if they were connected by a physical bus, without being tied to specific hardware or communication protocols.

Right Answer:
To clear the cache and buffer in the Opera browser, follow these steps:

1. Open Opera.
2. Click on the menu icon (three horizontal lines) in the top-left corner.
3. Select "Settings."
4. Scroll down and click on "Advanced."
5. Under "Privacy and security," click on "Clear browsing data."
6. Choose the time range and check "Cached images and files."
7. Click on "Clear data."

Right Answer:
The `param()` method in jQuery is used to create a URL-encoded string from an array or object, which is often used for sending data in an AJAX request.

Right Answer:
The different types of APIs are:

1. **Open APIs (Public APIs)** - Available to developers and third parties.
2. **Internal APIs (Private APIs)** - Used within an organization.
3. **Partner APIs** - Shared with specific business partners.
4. **Composite APIs** - Combine multiple endpoints into a single call.
5. **Web APIs** - Accessible over the internet using HTTP/HTTPS.

Right Answer:
The common status codes in HTTP responses are:

- **200**: OK
- **201**: Created
- **204**: No Content
- **400**: Bad Request
- **401**: Unauthorized
- **403**: Forbidden
- **404**: Not Found
- **500**: Internal Server Error
- **502**: Bad Gateway
- **503**: Service Unavailable

Right Answer:
API versioning is the practice of managing changes to an API by assigning version numbers to different iterations of the API. It is important because it allows developers to introduce new features or make changes without breaking existing client applications that rely on older versions, ensuring backward compatibility and a smoother transition for users.

Right Answer:
API testing is the process of verifying that an application programming interface (API) functions as expected, ensuring it meets the requirements for functionality, reliability, performance, and security. Tools that can be used for API testing include Postman, SoapUI, JMeter, RestAssured, and Swagger.

Right Answer:
RESTful principles include:

1. **Statelessness**: Each API call must contain all the information needed to understand and process the request, with no stored context on the server.
2. **Client-Server Architecture**: The client and server are separate, allowing for independent development and scalability.
3. **Uniform Interface**: A consistent way to interact with resources, typically using standard HTTP methods (GET, POST, PUT, DELETE).
4. **Resource-Based**: APIs should expose resources (data entities) through URIs, and clients interact with these resources.
5. **Representation**: Resources can be represented in various formats (like JSON or XML), and clients can request the format they prefer.
6. **Cacheability**: Responses should indicate whether they can be cached to improve performance and reduce server load.

These principles guide the design of APIs to be scalable, efficient, and easy to use.

Right Answer:
The Agile Manifesto values:

* **Individuals and interactions** over processes and tools.
* **Working software** over comprehensive documentation.
* **Customer collaboration** over contract negotiation.
* **Responding to change** over following a plan.

That is, while the items on the right have value, we value the items on the left more.

Right Answer:
Success in Agile is measured by:

* **Output:** Delivering valuable, working software frequently; achieving the product vision; meeting business goals; customer satisfaction; and predictability (consistent delivery).
* **Team Health:** Team morale; continuous improvement (velocity trends, retrospectives leading to action); collaboration; self-organization; and sustainable pace.

Right Answer:
Agile ceremonies are recurring meetings within a sprint to facilitate communication, planning, and continuous improvement.

* **Sprint Planning:** The team decides what work to complete in the upcoming sprint. They discuss user stories, estimate effort, and define the sprint goal.

* **Daily Stand-up:** A brief daily meeting where the team shares progress, identifies roadblocks, and coordinates efforts. Each member typically answers: What did I do yesterday? What will I do today? Are there any impediments?

* **Sprint Review:** The team demonstrates the completed work to stakeholders, gathering feedback and ensuring alignment with expectations.

* **Sprint Retrospective:** The team reflects on the past sprint, identifying what went well, what could be improved, and defining action items to enhance future performance.

Right Answer:
We prioritize features or tasks in an Agile sprint using a combination of factors like business value, risk, effort/size, dependencies, and urgency. Product Owner usually leads this, using techniques like MoSCoW (Must have, Should have, Could have, Won't have) or story pointing, to ensure the most valuable items are tackled first.

Right Answer:
During a sprint, I generally avoid scope creep. If a change request is small and doesn't impact the sprint goal, the team can discuss and decide if it can be included. If the change is significant, it goes into the product backlog to be prioritized for a future sprint.
