Sample Angular 7 Interview Questions and Answers

Let us begin with some sample questions and answers to get an idea of what types of questions can be asked.

Sample Angular 7 Interview Questions and Answers for Beginners

1. Why does incremental DOM have a low memory footprint in Angular 7?

Every time we re-render, Virtual DOM creates a tree from scratch. But incremental DOM requires no memory to re-render the view as long as the DOM isn’t changed, and the memory has to be allocated only when the DOM nodes are added or deleted. The size of the memory allocation is also proportional to the size of the change in DOM.

2. Define the Angular TestBed in the context of Angular 7.

The Angular TestBed or ATB is a higher-level testing framework exclusively for Angular, which helps us test behaviors with a dependency on Angular Framework smoothly. It provides a dynamically-constructed Angular test module that emulates an Angular @NgModule.
