1st round questions: Discussion about my roles and responsibilities in my current company Overview of automation framework Linux commands, server connecting command Problem solving question to find unique characters out of a string Java question (difference between JVM,JRE,JDK) Apart from this there were few more questions. 2nd round: The discussion was heavily focused on syntax-level details — for example, being asked to write specific code that is typically referenced or reused from existing test frameworks or classes.
