When a work process is out-sourced to a different country which is not nearby – it is called off-shore outsourcing. For e.g. If USA outsources a work process to India- it is off-shore outsourcing. 

1. Have two indexes pointing to two ends of array, say i and j.

2. Approach towards each other with a check condition that they dont cross each other.

3. Each iteration of while loop, swap the numbers pointed by two indexes when num[i] index number is not equal to 1.

void sort()

{

     int a[]={1,0,0,0,1,1,0,1,0,1,0,0,1,0};

     int i=0;

     int j=13;

     int temp;

      while(j>i)

     {

          if(a[i]==1)

                 i++;

          if(a[j]==0)

                 j--;

          if(a[i]==0)

         {

                 temp=a[i];

                a[i]=a[j];

                a[j]=temp;

         }

     } 

     for(i=0;i<14;i++)

             Console.Write(a[i]+", ");

}

Output: 1,1,1,1,1,1,0,0,0,0,0,0,0

1) List down usecases (taken from business cases) from function specs. For each use case write a test case and categorize them into sanity tests, functionality, GUI, performance etc. Then for each test case, write its workflow. 

2) For a GUI application - make a list of all GUI controls. For each control start writing test cases for testing of the control UI, functionality (impact on the whole application), negative testing (for incorrect inputs), performance etc.
