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

2. Sam is using the CMIS Document Access builder to allow his model to make service calls to FileNet. His FileNet administrator has told him that he can use the basic HTTP Access Scheme, and has provided him a user name and password. How would he set this up?

A) Select Basic Authentication for the Runtime Authentication input and enter username and password as the JVM properties CMISUserName and CMISPassword in IBM WebSphere Application Server administration.
B) Create a java class that implements com.bowstreet.builders.webapp.cmis.CmisHttpConnection with class name BasicHttpConnection.
C) Select Basic Authentication for the Runtime Authentication input and specify username and password in /WEB-INF/config/cmis_config/designer/defaultCredentials.properties.
D) Select Basic Authentication for the Runtime Authentication input and enter username in Runtime User name and password in Runtime password.

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

4. For faster iterative development and testing, Johan would like to test his models without continually logging in and logging out of the IBM WebSphere Portal server and loading the correct page. Which of the following steps should he take to accomplish this task?

A) Create a configuration to run the model stand-alone.
B) Create a run configuration to run the models on an embedded test server.
C) Open the model files in a browser after associating the extension .model with the browser.
D) No actions are necessary as models run embedded in the Eclipse or IBM Rational Application Developer IDE by default.

5. Heather needs to enable an existing operation that returns XML to be called by a coworker's JavaScript code as a REST service that returns a JSON object. What is the best way to accomplish this with IBM Web Experience Factory?

A) Add a REST Service Call builder for the service operation and change the Return Type field from XML to JSON.
B) Check the Generation JSON builder field in the Service Operation builder for the specified operations.
C) Write a Method that calls the operation programmatically, transform the result with the com.bowstreet.XMLtoJSON API, and then return the JSON after setting the response content type to application/JSON.
D) Add a REST Service Enable builder for the service operation and change the Return Type field from XML to JSON.
