I attended ADOBE,bangalore interview in aug 2009.first round
written test they ask questions
1)Give 5 reasons why a build can be released with bug

2)Write a bug report for a word processor program which
crashes when the
contents of 89th column is been sorted in assending order.

3)write test 10 cases for program which has a table with 2
fields of NAME
od char type and CLASS of INT type.NAME fields is truncated
after 26
charaters and CLASS takes value between 1 to 9 both included.

There are 3 possible opearations program can perform

a)When a new student joins the class the program adds a new
field
b)When student leaves the class the field get deleted
c)when student gets promoted then program incremts the class
by 1

Write 5 test cases for the scenario.

4)write 10 test cases for a program that takes date in
dd/mm/yyyy format
and prints it out with a increment of 1.

for dates (dd) can be given in the range 1<=dd>=30
for months (mm) can be given in the range 1<=mm>=12
for years(yyyy) can be given in the range 1600<=yyyy>=9999

5)Give 5 bugs that could cause a program to crash when it
printed the
999999 th pages 1000001th line.


Some objective question were there but they were easy.







1st LEVEL WRITTEN TEST FOR QA:

1. 15 min Logical Ability test: Simple syllogism based
questions, sequence related questions, etc

2. 30 min Quantitative Aptitude test: Simple Arithmetic,
angles, geometry, profit/loss, number system

There will be 15 questions for match the column

Mark A if column A is GREATER than column B

Mark B if column A is LESS than column B

Mark C if column A is = column B

Mark D if DATA IS INSUFFICIENT

There are very simple typical baron based

There would be 3 questions on triangles all three were from
RS Aggarwal.

17. there was one set of questions on the DI question on 20
-25 were on this graph

It was about the total mass of human body is 70,000 gms

Muscles 30000

Bones 10000

Blood 5000

Liver

There were two pie charts

Which tell the percentage of water in the food.

And the second one tells the which parts ,,something like that

Question

1. what percentage of total mass does liver has

Ans 2.4%

What is the ratio of bones to total mass

All the questions are simple ..

3. 45 min Testing concept test: 20 objective multiple choice
qustions like binary form of numbers, virtual memory, lossy
compression, while loop, if-then-else, error codes.

1. Winzip is a

a. lossy compression

b. lossless Compression

c.text

d image

2. output of 11000100 minus 2

3. Memory leakage is because of

a.variable not decraled

b. variable not free.. like this 4 options were given

4. Virtual memory concept is related to

a. memory leagkage {mospagebreak}

5.Reggretion testing is defined as

a. testing the whole application

b.testing the different modules in the application

6. If the time is very limited for the testing then what
would u test in the application.

a. run all the tests

b.look for the most used featues in the application

c.go to the test plan and run the test based on the priority

I would suggest to go thru all the definition like what is
regretion testing .what is unit smoke.etc.

1 Test Case Writing questions: 10 test cases for entering 3
values representing sides of a triangle and the program
giving output as scalene, isosceles or eqilauteral (10 Marks)

1 Output of a calculator and finding the error in the
output, write the defect log for the bug (5 Marks)

1 Ques on weather Dev should do the testing or not. Give 3
reason on favour and 2 against it. (5 Marks)

1 Question diff between priority of a bug and severity of a
bug. Give example of one case where priority is high but
severity is low and one case where severity is high bur
priority is low.

1 Question on a program that calculates P=R/I where R, I are
integer inputs and P a floating point output. Write 10 test
cases for this - 5 Marks.

2nd round:
1.write a testcase for login page,mobile phone.
2.write a program for fibonacci series.
3.puzzles (-%-+-+--=-%-+--) fill the dashes with nos from 1
to 9.left hand side only odd nos. right hand side only even
nos. the nos should not repeat.
4.what is sanity testing,regression testing,explian about ur
project etc..

3re round:
1.explain about ur project.they will ask questions from
projects like what is the web server used in ur project,what
are all the clinents ur company will have?team size etc...
2. one puzzle.
i attended upto this level only...still more rounds will be
there....if u goto adobe interview be clear in testing
concepts,basic programs and more puzzles.
