IBM Developing Portlets and Web Applications with IBM Web Experience Factory 8.0 Sample Questions:

1. Jerald has created a web application project and included the Tutorials and Samples Building Models feature set. Now after working with the project, he would like to extend his application to include data from a Microsoft Excel or IBM Symphony spreadsheet. What steps should he take to include this new data, which might change over time?

A) Add the spreadsheet extension feature set by right-clicking the project and selecting IBM Web Experience Factory / Feature Info.
B) Add a new imported file feature set using the right-click menu from the project.
C) Export the data to a comma-separated value (CSV) format and import it into a supported native data source.
D) Convert the Excel or Symphony file to HTML and include it as a page in the project.

2. Sally has created a simple Hello World model and wants to edit one of the builder calls. How does she begin editing?

A) Copy the builder call and edit from the copy, then re-import the builder into the model.
B) Locate the builder call in the Navigator, then use Open With to edit in a text editor.
C) Right-click the builder call and select Edit.
D) Double-click the builder call or right-click and Open, then edit in the Builder Call editor.

3. Christine wishes to leverage the REST Service Call builder's ability to restructure the generated result schema and result structure. How should she do this?

A) She should add a REST Service Call Restructure builder and register it with the REST Service Call builder.
B) She should implement the RestructureFeedData interface, register it, and select it in the REST Service Call builder's "Restructure Type" input.
C) She should directly modify the the result schema in the REST Service Call builder's "Result Schema" input and the REST Service Call builder will reshape the data to this structure at runtime.
D) She should choose to follow the steps in either answer B or answer C.

4. Phil needs to use a set of resource bundles to localize the portlets that he is building. What steps can he use to accomplish this task?

A) Place the bundles into the project ensuring that the bundles include the appropriate language and country codes. Then use a Localized Resource builder to import the proper bundle according to the locale determined for the user of the portlet.
B) Phil can use the Imported Resource builder and the Simple Locale Profile Selection Handler to select and import the correct bundle. Then use Data Page, View and Form, and the other UI builders to construct the localized UI with strings from the imported bundle.
C) Place the bundles into the project and use the Imported Page builder and it's localization inputs to automatically apply the correct resource bundle to the page imported into the portlet.
D) Use the Data Services builder to generate a service that selects the appropriate bundle based upon the locale of the request and returns it as an XML structure that can be fed directly into the Data Page or View and Form builders.

5. Paul has an existing Service Provider model and now needs to add a Transform Filter builder to allow specific content to be filtered out of the data. After adding the Transform Filter builder, how does Paul get the filtered results to be used by the existing Service Operation builder?

A) The filtered results are automatically used by the existing Service Operation builder in the provider model.
B) Write an Action List to map the data from the original service operation.
C) Change the input "Action to Call" to point to the Transform Filter data service in the Service Operation builder.
D) Use the override results in the Service Definition builder to point to the filtered data service output.
