Starting from a short description (similar to the Design Fest activity in class, but smaller), you will need to design a system. This includes writing user stories (following the 3C format), CRC Cards and UML diagrams (Class and Sequence)</p>\n<p>There we be some OO design questions. You would have to evaluate a small snippet of code (~20 lines) to see if it violates any of the SOLID principles. If it does, you will need to provide a refactoring of the code, to remove the violation.</p>\n<p>There will be questions about testing. You will have to choose a testing techinque (blackbox or whitebox), and write a few (4-5) test cases. You also need to know different types of coverage, and how to write code to achieve a certain coverage (e.g. achieve 100% line coverage for a method).</p>\n<p>Finally, there will be an short questions that will cover the rest of the material. The answers for these questions will be 1-2 sentences at most. </p>',frontmatter:{path:"/resources/final-exam-guide",title:"Final Exam Study Guide"}}},pathContext:{}}}});
