IBM Assessment: IBM WebSphere Process Server V7.0, Integration Development Sample Questions:

1. An integration developer is testing a microflow which invokes several external services. This microflow should take no longer than 30 seconds to complete. During the execution, a transaction timeout exception was thrown. The developer suspects that one of the external services is taking too long to return the response. Which of the following methods is the BEST approach to troubleshoot this problem?

A) Implement a fault handler in the microflow and collect additional information through the exception stack-trace.
B) Examine the SystemOut.log for the associating transaction exception stack-trace.
C) Use the Tivoli Performance Viewer to check the duration of the service invocation.
D) Use a BPC Explorer to check execution time of the each invocation activity.

2. Which of the following Service Message Object (SMO) context objects is used to aggregate data when using the Fan Out and Fan In mediation primitives?

A) correlation
B) transient
C) shared
D) failInfo

3. An insurance company implements a human task to handle insurance claims. When a claim exceeds $1,500, the regional manager must review and add a review note before the claim can be processed. Therefore, the integration developer decides to implement a human task with follow-on task support. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A) The human task can be inline or stand-alone to-do tasks as well as collaboration tasks.
B) Both "Enable follow-on task creation" and "Enable subtask creation" options must be enabled.
C) The human task must be a stand-alone task in order to support the follow-on task.
D) Business Space does not support follow-on task that the developer must generate HTML-Dojo pages as a client application.

4. Refer to the Exhibit.

An integration developer is building an order fulfillment system that calls an inventory service that updates the order item inventory. The For Each loop in the exhibit is designed to manage the inventory update portion of the application. The UpdateInventory invoke activity gets the inventory amount and the Assign activity sets the process variable.
Which of the following is TRUE about the solution?

A) The execution should be sequential to avoid concurrent updates to the items variable.
B) The UpdateInventory invoke can not be called from a For Each loop.
C) The XPath in the assign should read items[index]/amount.
D) The application will properly execute and update the order variable.

5. Refer to the exhibit.

A developer using the interface in the exhibit is facing a requirements change - the start operation needs to be a one-way operation that uses the existing inputs. Which of the following is the BEST way to make the change?

A) Right-click on the operation and choose "Change to One Way Operation" from the context menu.
B) Delete the interface and create a new interface with the same name, namespace, and operation name with a one-way operation.
C) Click on the operation name and choose "Alt+Shift+R" to refactor the operation.
D) Add a new one-way operation to the interface and ignore the existing operation.
