1. What are the stages in SDLC?

Answer: There are 5 stages in SDLC:
 I. Requirements Gathering
 II. Analysis & Planning
III. Design
 IV. Coding / Implementation
 V. Release & Maintenance

2. What is a RAD model?
A: The Rapid Application Development model is a linear sequential software development process that emphasizes an extremely short development cycle. The RAD model is a high speed adoption of the linear sequential model in which rapid development is achieved by using component based construction approach.

 It has following phases:

1. Business modeling
 2. Data modeling
 3. Process modeling
 4. Application generation
 5. Testing and Turnover

3. What are Disadvantages of Prototype Model?
A. Implementing the prototype model for creating software has disadvantages. Since its being built out of concept, most of the models presented in the early stage are not complete. Usually they lack flaws that developers still need to work on them again and again. Integration could be very difficult for a prototype model. This often happens when other programs are already stable. The prototype software is released and integrated to the company’s suite of software.

4. What is difference between iterative model and waterfall model?
A. Waterfall Model: This is a flow based model, in which we pass every phase once, and can not go back to that phase again. Drawback:  If there is nay change in requirements, then we can’t make any changes in requirements. Iterative Model: In this we can come back to previous phases, and make the changes accordingly. In this we revived a final output product at the end of the SDLC.

5. What is the difference between iterative model and prototype model?
A. Iterative Model: In this we can come back to previous phases, and make the changes accordingly. In this we revived a final output product at the end of the SDLC.
Prototype Model: Here we receive Prototypes of the product, before the final release. We release 4-5 Protypes with some differences b/w them, and take client opinion, and modifies the final Product, as per client suggestions.
6. What is meant by Waterfall Model?
A. The waterfall model is a popular version of the systems development life cycle model for software engineering. Often considered the classic approach to the systems development life cycle, the waterfall model describes a development method that is linear and sequential. Waterfall development has distinct goals for each phase of development.
7. What is spiral model?
A. Spiral model is one of the software development lifecycle model. it is very easy to understand both the developers and customers and react the risk at each eliminatory level it uses reduction of the mechanisam.It is divided into no of frame work activates. It’s called as spiral model.
8. What are advantages of Prototype Model?
A. Creating software using the prototype model also has its benefits. One of the key advantages prototype model software has is the time frame of development. Everyone has to work on the same thing and at the same time, reducing man hours in creating software. The work will even be faster and efficient if developers will collaborate more regarding the status of a specific function and develop the necessary adjustments in time for the integration.
9. Explain different Prototype Models Types.?
A. There are four types of Prototype Models based on their development planning:
 1. The Patch-Up Prototype
    2. Nonoperational Prototype
 3. First-of-a-Series Prototype
 4. Selected Features Prototype
10. What is “Software life cycle”?
A. The life cycle begins when an application is first conceived and ends when it is no longer in use. It includes aspects such as initial concept, requirements analysis, functional design, internal design, documentation planning, test planning, coding, document preparation, integration, testing, maintenance, updates, retesting, phase-out, and other aspects.
11. What are stages in STLC?

STLC is Software testing Life cycle and SDLC work closely together and some of their activities are almost the same.however the stages are very different from each other.

13.What is the meaning of SDLC.net?
A.When a person is utilizing  the .Net Framework to create the needed application ,the process is called as SDLC.Net.
14.What are the advantages of using SDLC with .Net framework?
A.With SDLC.Net the user can create all the computing devices to function together. User information can be synchronized and updated automatically .
Users  have the ability to make reusable modules which can increase the productivity as well as reduce the errors in programming.
15.What are the methods available for SDLC Project Management?
A. WaterFall methodFountain,Build and Fix,Spiral,Incremental,Synchronize & Stabilize and Rapid Prototyping.
16.Which models does Spiral SDLC model combine?

It combines the features of Waterfall and the Prototyping model.
17.What are the 2 types of SDLC requirements
A. Functional and Non-Functional Requirements
18.What are functional requirements?
A.This is a  requirements document which include what a certain system has to do to achieve a certain objective. It is prepared during the first stages of SDLC.

We can perform the Volume testing, where the system is subjected to large volume of data.

1. What’s the difference between a primary key and a unique key?

Both primary key and unique enforce uniqueness of the column on which they are defined. But by default primary key creates a clustered index on the column, where are unique creates a nonclustered index by default. Another major difference is that, primary key doesn’t allow NULLs, but unique key allows one NULL only.

2. Write a SQL Query to find first Week Day of month?

SELECT DATENAME(dw, DATEADD(dd, – DATEPART(dd, GETDATE()) + 1, GETDATE())) AS FirstDay

3. How to find 6th highest salary from Employee table

SELECT TOP 1 salary FROM (SELECT DISTINCT TOP 6 salary FROM employee
ORDER BY salary DESC) a ORDER BY salary

4. What is a join and List different types of joins.

Joins are used in queries to explain how different tables are related. Joins also let you select data from a table depending upon data from another table. Types of joins: INNER JOINs, OUTER JOINs, CROSS JOINs. OUTER JOINs are further classified as LEFT OUTER JOINS, RIGHT OUTER JOINS and FULL OUTER JOINS.

5. How can I enforce to use particular index?

You can use index hint (index=index_name) after the table name. SELECT au_lname FROM authors (index=aunmind)

6. What is sorting and what is the difference between sorting and clustered indexes?

The ORDER BY clause sorts query results by one or more columns up to 8,060 bytes. This will happen by the time when we retrieve data from database. Clustered indexes physically sorting data, while inserting/updating the table.

7. What are the differences between UNION and JOINS?

A join selects columns from 2 or more tables. A union selects rows.

8. What is the Referential Integrity?

Referential integrity refers to the consistency that must be maintained between primary and foreign keys, i.e. every foreign key value must have a corresponding primary key value

9. What is the row size in SQL Server 2000?

8060 bytes.

10. How to determine the service pack currently installed on SQL Server?

The global variable @@Version stores the build number of the sqlservr.exe, which is used to determine the service pack installed. eg: Microsoft SQL Server 2000 – 8.00.760 (Intel X86) Dec 17 2002 14:22:05 Copyright (c) 1988-2003 Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition on Windows NT 5.0 (Build 2195: Service Pack 3)

11. What is the purpose of UPDATE STATISTICS?

Updates information about the distribution of key values for one or more statistics groups (collections) in the specified table or indexed view.

12. What is the use of SCOPE_IDENTITY() function?

Returns the most recently created identity value for the tables in the current execution scope.

13. What are the different ways of moving data/databases between servers and databases in SQL Server?

There are lots of options available, you have to choose your option depending upon your requirements. Some of the options you have are: BACKUP/RESTORE, detaching and attaching databases, replication, DTS, BCP, logshipping, INSERT…SELECT, SELECT…INTO, creating INSERT scripts to generate data.

14. How do you transfer data from text file to database (other than DTS)?

Using the BCP (Bulk Copy Program) utility.

15. What’s the difference between DELETE TABLE and TRUNCATE TABLE commands?

DELETE TABLE is a logged operation, so the deletion of each row gets logged in the transaction log, which makes it slow. TRUNCATE TABLE also deletes all the rows in a table, but it won’t log the deletion of each row, instead it logs the deallocation of the data pages of the table, which makes it faster. Of course, TRUNCATE TABLE can be rolled back.

16. What is a deadlock?

Deadlock is a situation when two processes, each having a lock on one piece of data, attempt to acquire a lock on the other’s piece. Each process would wait indefinitely for the other to release the lock, unless one of the user processes is terminated. SQL Server detects deadlocks and terminates one user’s process.

17. What is a LiveLock?

A livelock is one, where a request for an exclusive lock is repeatedly denied because a series of overlapping shared locks keeps interfering. SQL Server detects the situation after four denials and refuses further shared locks. A livelock also occurs when read transactions monopolize a table or page, forcing a write transaction to wait indefinitely.

18. How to restart SQL Server in single user mode?

From Startup Options :- Go to SQL Server Properties by right-clicking on the Server name in the Enterprise manager. Under the ‘General’ tab, click on ‘Startup Parameters’. Enter a value of -m in the Parameter.

19. Does SQL Server 2000 clustering support load balancing?

SQL Server 2000 clustering does not provide load balancing; it provides failover support. To achieve load balancing, you need software that balances the load between clusters, not between servers within a cluster.

20. What is DTC?

The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) is a transaction manager that allows client applications to include several different sources of data in one transaction. MS DTC coordinates committing the distributed transaction across all the servers enlisted in the transaction.

21. What is DTS?

Microsoft® SQL Server™ 2000 Data Transformation Services (DTS) is a set of graphical tools and programmable objects that lets you extract, transform, and consolidate data from disparate sources into single or multiple destinations.

22. What are defaults? Is there a column to which a default can’t be bound?

A default is a value that will be used by a column, if no value is supplied to that column while inserting data. IDENTITY columns and timestamp columns can’t have defaults bound to them.

23. What are the constraints ?

Table Constraints define rules regarding the values allowed in columns and are the standard mechanism for enforcing integrity. SQL Server 2000 supports five classes of constraints. NOT NULL , CHECK, UNIQUE, PRIMARY KEY, FOREIGN KEY.

24. What is Transaction?

A transaction is a sequence of operations performed as a single logical unit of work. A logical unit of work must exhibit four properties, called the ACID (Atomicity, Consistency, Isolation, and Durability) properties, to qualify as a transaction.

25. What is Isolation Level?

An isolation level determines the degree of isolation of data between concurrent transactions. The default SQL Server isolation level is Read Committed. A lower isolation level increases concurrency, but at the expense of data correctness. Conversely, a higher isolation level ensures that data is correct, but can affect concurrency negatively. The isolation level required by an application determines the locking behavior SQL Server uses. SQL-92 defines the following isolation levels, all of which are supported by SQL Server:

Read uncommitted (the lowest level where transactions are isolated only enough to ensure that physically corrupt data is not read).
Read committed (SQL Server default level).
Repeatable read.
Serializable (the highest level, where transactions are completely isolated from one another).

What is Function?

 Its a reusable code

Two Types of user defined functions in VBScript
     a) Sub procedures:
                   Def: 1.It is a set of statements enclosed with sub and end sub
                           statements to perform a task or tasks
                   2.Sub procedures take arguments, but arguments are optional
                  3. They won’t return any value

           Syntax:   
                   Sub Procedurename(arguments)
                   Statements
                  ———–
                   End Sub

     b) Function procedures
                   Def: 1.It is a set of statements enclosed with function and end function
                           statements to perform a task or tasks
                   2.Function procedures take arguments, but arguments are optional
                  3. They can return a value

           Syntax:   
                   Sub Procedurename(arguments)
                   Statements
                  ———–
                   End Sub

   Note: Sub procedures are faster in execution thn function procedures
