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

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

2. Nancy is building a client-side mobile application in IBM Web Experience Factory and wants to customize common user interface elements. How would she do this?

A) Add a Client-Side CSS builder to the model.
B) Customize the appropriate values in styles defined within the client_dojo_mobile.uitheme directory.
C) Modify the CSS in the model's theme.
D) Add client-side builders to the model and specify preferences in the builder inputs.

3. Mary is developing an application that requires multiple, complex argument types for inter-portlet communications between two IBM Web Experience Factory portlets in the same WAR on the same IBM WebSphere Portal page. Which of the four event mechanisms is the best choice to accomplish this?

A) Property Broker Action
B) Click-to-Action
C) Property Broker Link
D) Factory Events

4. John is trying to wire two IBM Web Experience Factory portlets that reside on different IBM WebSphere Portal pages. What option will give him the best approach?

A) Wiring of two Web Experience Factory portlets on two different pages is technically not feasible.
B) Use the Web Experience Factory Event Declaration and Event Handler builder with page wiring option available within the builder.
C) Use the Cooperative Portlet Source and Cooperative Portlet Target builders with WebSphere Portal's wiring tool.
D) Wire the two portlets together using the shared variable builder so they can share data via session.

5. Simone added an XML type IBM Web Experience Factory variable with some configuration data that will be constant and the same for all users of her model. How should she mark this variable's data value shareable across users to minimize memory usage?

A) Set the Variable builder's State and Failover field to Read-Write but not persisted for failover to save the memory that would be used by serializing the data for failover.
B) Set the Variable builder's State and Failover field to Shared Memory so that the value is stored in shared memory where it can be accessed by all users.
C) Use the Web Experience Factory Cache Control builder to cache the variable value across users.
D) Set the Variable builder's State and Failover field to Read Only: shared across all users, and the value is stored and referenced on the web application object itself and not per user session.
