// Here Assert is a class and assertEquals is a method which will compare two values if// both matches it will run fine but in case if does not match then if will throw an 
//exception and fail testcases
 
// Verify error message
Assert.assertEquals(actual_msg, expect);
 
    }
}

9. What is your notice period and can you join earlier than 30 days?

Understand how a particular scenario or Test Case would affect the end-user

Need to consider how much time it would take to fix the defect based on its complexity and time to verify the defect

import org.openqa.selenium.WebDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.firefox.FirefoxDriver;
import org.openqa.selenium.chrome.*;
import org.testng.annotations.Test;
 
public class ParallelTest {
 public WebDriver driver;

   driver.quit();
 
  }
 
        @Test
 public void ChromeTest()
 { 
 
   //Initialize the chrome driver
 
   driver = new ChromeDriver();
   driver.get("https://www.demoqa.com"); 
   driver.findElement(By.xpath("//*[@id=\"app\"]/div/div/div[2]/div/div[1]/div/div[1]")).click();
   driver.quit();
 
 }

27. If 1 thread of 1 machine is dependent on 3rd thread of other machine how can we execute

28. How to run the scheduler and to run the bat file?

Below steps are followed to run the scheduler

Go to control panel.
Administrative tool.
Task scheduler and create a task which will trigger run.bat file at the time you want.

29. If there are 10 link boxes with 10 unique fields each boxes have then how many permutations we can have test cases…I said 10 to the power 10 if so is it feasible to do automation and how?

30. Why should Selenium be selected as a test tool?

Following are the reasons,

Platforms and Browsers supported by Selenium
Visibility in End-to-End Testing
Integration With Other Tools
Reduces Turnaround Time
