Testability and Testing Practices Questions

Emphasizes designing code for testability and applying disciplined testing practices to ensure correctness and reduce regressions. Topics include writing modular code with clear seams for injection and mocking, unit tests and integration tests, test driven development, use of test doubles and mocking frameworks, distinguishing meaningful test coverage from superficial metrics, test independence and isolation, organizing and naming tests, test data management, reducing flakiness and enabling reliable parallel execution, scaling test frameworks and reporting, and integrating tests into continuous integration pipelines. Interviewers will probe how candidates make code testable, design meaningful test cases for edge conditions, and automate testing in the delivery flow.
