6 questions

Answer out loud first, then open the guide. Most people read the guide too early.

  1. 1

    Test a quote-and-buy flow for an insurance product with several riders.

    mediumDomain

    A strong answer covers

    Premium rules per age and cover, rider combinations, eligibility, tax, rounding, quote expiry, payment failure, duplicate policy, and a calculation oracle independent of the UI.

  2. 2

    When does BDD help and when does it become overhead?

    mediumBDD

    A strong answer covers

    Helps when product, dev and QA write examples together. Overhead when scenarios are just UI scripts in Gherkin. Keep steps declarative and few.

  3. 3

    Design an automation architecture for a web app, a mobile app, and a set of APIs owned by one team.

    hardArchitecture

    A strong answer covers

    Shared test data and API layer, UI tests for few journeys, API tests for rules, reusable page and screen objects, one report, one pipeline, contract tests for the APIs.

  4. 4

    How do you test a booking API that must not double-book a seat?

    mediumAPI testing

    A strong answer covers

    Concurrent requests for one seat, idempotency keys, expiry of held seats, retries after timeout, and checking the final state in the database.

  5. 5

    How do you speed up a Playwright suite that logs in before every test?

    mediumPlaywright

    A strong answer covers

    Log in once through the API or UI, save storage state, reuse per worker or project, and keep one test that covers the login itself.

  6. 6

    A nightly batch posts interest. How do you test it without waiting a night?

    hardBanking

    A strong answer covers

    Trigger the job on demand in a test environment, control the clock, seed accounts with known balances, compare to an independent calculation, and test reruns and failure mid-batch.

Now say it to an interviewer

Reading a guide is not the same as answering under a clock. Run a mock interview and get scored feedback.
