3,427 software test automation engineer interview questions shared by candidates

I'll focus on the technical part of the interview only. This consisted of creating an automated test solution within 5-7 days, The AUT is the production app itself. This is a bit tricky, because there are measures in place to detect fraud and automated scripts, which are usually bypassed in test environments. As I understood it this part will somewhat change in the future, because it's not 100% fair. Afterwards there was a technical discussion, which was a bit easy, but on point. There was no nonsense like reciting documentation from memory, that you encounter in other lame interviews at other companies.

Solve either one the below coding question you have to move zeros either to end of the array or bring them to beginning of the array. For example, if {14, 0, 5, 2, 0, 3, 0} is the given array, then moving zeros to end of the array will result {14, 5, 2, 3, 0, 0, 0} and bringing zeros to front will result {0, 0, 0, 14, 5, 2, 3}. Solve without using For loop and without using a new blank array/collection. Write a Java program to replace all leading and trailing zeroes in a number without using Replace function. Eg. input - 0001120380.0000 output - 1120380, input - 00012.001200 output - 12.0012
