1. " Can we have multiple HTML elements on a web page? "

I said , yes ofcourse a web page can have multiple HTML elements.

2. " How would you identify a particular HTML element on a web page? "

I said, there is a mechanism in Selenium called " Locators ". With the help of Locators , we can identify a
particular HTML element on a page.

3. " How many locators do we have in Selenium? "

I said, we have total 8 Locators in Selenium.

4. " Please, Tell me the name of all the 8 Locators? "

I said, id, name, className, tagName, linkText, partialLinkText, xpath and cssSelector.

5. " Which 'Locator' would you give first preference to find a particular HTML element on a web page? "

I said, i will give first preference to "id" Locator.

6. " Why would you like to use "id" instead any other locators? "

I said, "id" is unique and fast.

7. " When you have only choice of two locators (name, className) to use so which one would be using
to find a particular HTML element on a web page ? ".
I said, "name" i will give second preference to "name" Locator.

8. " Why not className instead name?"

I said , As class represents group of elements if we have a requirement to catch multiple HTML elements
associated with the class then we would use.

9. " Is there any specific locator to locate link text? "

I said, yes we have two locators to work with link text : linkText & partialLinkText.

11. " Can't we use xpath/cssSelector to locate link text? "

I said, yes we can but i won't be using because xpath/cssSelector is a customized way and customized
things always slowdown the process and when i have some specialized locators for linked text that
would be more compatible and will fast the script comparitively.

8. "Sometimes, you may not have any of these [ id, name, className, linkText, partialLinkText] locators
in your HTML so which locator would be using to identify a particular HTML element on a web page? "

I said, i would be using xpath/cssSelector (customized mechanism) when we don't have any one on one
locator in our HTML.

9. " If you are using xpath/cssSelector Sometimes, you will have some attribute value is too long or
sometime few part may be dynamic in some attribute values so don't you think that our code will look
so complex/lengthy ? "

I said, again we have a mechanism " Regular expressions " so syntactically we will make it short and
simple using xpath / cssSelector with regular expressions.
10. " Sometimes, you have only tags in your HTML then how would you identify a particular HTML
element on a webpage? "

I said, i would be solving this scenario with the help of tags.

Conclusion: Interviewer will check our smartness how smartly we are using Locators, how smartly we
are writing locators and we should study deep-dive this concept and implementation.

What is Encapsulation in java ? *

Encapsulation is one of the fundamental principle of object oriented programming .

📍 Encapsulation allows to protect the data within a class from outside entities.

📍 Encapsulation helps to achieve hiding the internal information from outside entities.

📍 Data and methods (To access the data) are bundled together within a single unit .(class)

📍 In Java, encapsulation is typically achieved by:

Declaring the class members as private.

Providing public getter and setter methods to access and modify the private attributes.

Note :

Let's say we have 1 private variables in a class

Example - 1:

getter & setter for primitive type private members.

private String empnm;

// get method to access the data

public String GetName() {

return empnm;

// set the data

public void setName(String enm) {

} // call the method & pass the data as param

If we can notice the getter & setter for empnm , below points we can note:

1. getter method will return the variable which is private and it is non parameterized .

2. setter method is a parameterized method which we shall use to set the value for the private member
while calling , so only it is parameterized method.

Example -2 :getter & Setter for the private array :

public int[] getarr() {

return arr;

// Setter method to modify the private array

public void setarr(int[] brr) {

// You can add validation or other logic if needed

this.arr = brr;
