Q:

Explain when to use GET or POST. Provide example for both the ways.

Answer

Both GET and POST are used to collect data from a form. However, when security is desired $_POST should be used. When the $_ POST variable is used, all variables used are NOT displayed in the URL. Also, they have no restrictions to the length of the variables. GET should be used when the interaction with the form is more like a question. For e.g. firing a query etc. POST should be used more often when the interaction is more like an order or the interaction changes the state of the resource.


POST example:


<form action="sample.php" method="post">


Name: <input type="text" name="name" />


Age: <input type="text" name="age" />


<input type="submit" />


</form>


On clicking submit the URL resembles to: https://www.mysamplesite.com/sample.php


The sample.php file can be used for catching the form data using $_POST 


Hello <?php echo $_POST["name"]; ?>.<br />


You are <?php echo $_POST["age"]; ?> years old!


 


GET EXAMPLE


<form action="sample.php" method="get">


Name: <input type="text" name="name" />


Age: <input type="text" name="age" />


<input type="submit" />


</form>


On clicking submit the URL resembles to : https://www.mysamplesite.com/sample.php?name=jim&age=37


The sample.php file can be used for catching the form data using $_GET 


Hello <?php echo $_GET["name"]; ?>.<br />


You are <?php echo $_GET["age"]; ?> years old!

Q:

What is parallel/audit testing?

Answer

Parallel/audit testing is testing where the user reconciles the output of the new system to the output of the current system to verify the new system performs the operations correctly. Let us say, for example, the currently software is in the mainframe system which calculates the interest rate. The company wants to change this mainframe system to web-based application. While testing the new web based application, we need to verify that the web-based application calculates the same interest rate. This is parallel testing.

Q:

When should we use container classes instead of arrays?

Answer

It is advisable to use container classes of the STL so that you don’t have to go through the pain of writing the entire code for handling collisions, making sure its working well, testing it repeatedly with an overhead of time consumption.


Suppose you have some data that has values associated with strings and its fields consist of grades> in this situation you can directly use hash table instead of having it created by yourself.
