Paytm Automation Interview Questions [ 28.01.2021 ]

There is 3 round of interview questions. I have also tried to share the answer I gave during the interview. Correct me if I am wrong.

Round 1:

• Tell me about yourself?
• Different HTTP Methods you are aware of in API Testing.
  Ans:
  GET: Fetches a resource from the server
  POST: Creates a new resource on the server.
  PUT: Updates an existing resource on the server.
  DELETE: Deletes a resource on the server
  PATCH: Updates a current resource on the server.

  401: Unauthorized
  403: Forbidden
  404: Not Found
  500: Internal Server Error
  503: Service Unavailable
• Explain your project framework? (this question is asked in all rounds)
• Git Commands for pushing code to the repository. ( What the interviewer meant was to tell him the process I follow, from cloning the repository to pushing the code and creating a pull request. )
  Ans:
  a) git clone “repo-URL.”
  b) git checkout -b “branch-name”//for creating a branch
  c) make changes to the code.
  d) git add. //add those changes(or staging)
  e) git commit -m” commit message.”
  f) git push
  g) Creating a pull request from the Github UI to merge the branch to master.
• Different types of waits in selenium.

  Ans: I was like, according to Selenium official documentation, we should not use both waits together.
• Difference b/w Delete and truncate.

Round 2 :

• Introduction
• What is Kafka? (Mentioned in my resume)
• What is API? With Example?
  Ans: API(Application Programming Interface) is an interface between two applications. Therefore it enables us to transfer data between these two applications. For Example: In a Client-Server architecture, the Client requests data from a server, and the server responds with the requested data. You might be wondering where API is?
  API can be sitting on the server:
  1. Taking your request
  2. Feting data from the database.
  3. Returning you the response, acting as an interface between your request and the database.
• Difference between status codes 410 and 403
  Ans: 401: Unauthorized Access. This means you cannot log in to the application because of the wrong username or password.
  403: Forbidden. This means you are already logged in to the application but don’t have permission to access the resource.
• Difference between 500 and 503
  Ans: 500: Internal Server Error, i.e., the server cannot handle your request.
  503: Service Unavailable, i.e., the server is available, but the service is unavailable.

  Ans: Both are used for updating a resource on the server.
  PUT: Replaces the whole object
  PATCH: Replaces a particular field of an object
• What is Group By and Having
• Types of Joins in SQL
  Ans: LEFT JOIN: Returns all records from the left table and the matched records from the right table
  RIGHT JOIN: Returns all records from the right table and the matched records from the left table
  INNER JOIN: Returns records that have matching values in both tables.
  OUTER JOIN: Returns all records when there is a match in either the left or right table
