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

1. An integration developer is implementing a solution where several users can simultaneously claim and interact with a to-do task and provide a response without having to wait on another user. Which of the following tasks will the integration developer most likely perform?

A) Control the way in which individual responses are aggregated together into a single task result.
B) Select people assignment criteria of Everybody for the potential owner role.
C) Propagate the user roles from the main task to the subtasks so that the subtasks can adopt the default user roles of the main task.
D) Replace the to-do task with an invocation task.

2. A technical support team implements a defect handling system using a human task component. A very complex defect may need to be assigned across multiple people to complete the task. Therefore, the integration developer decides to implement a human task with subtasks. Which of the following statements is TRUE?

A) Subtasks can create follow-on tasks.
B) Subtasks inherit authorization roles from their parents by default.
C) Escalations are not supported by subtasks.
D) Parent task and subtasks must have the same input and output message type.

3. Employee data must be synchronized between Application A and Application B whenever an employee data is updated. However, the data format of Application A and B is different so that the employee data must be mediated through a data map. Application A uses a three-letter country code while Application B spells out the country name. (For example, "GBR" in Application A maps to "United Kingdom" in Application B.) The responsible data map must convert the three-letter country code to full country name before sending the employee data from Application A to Application B.
Which of the following actions will BEST accomplish this task?

A) Implement a selector and invoke it from the data map.
B) Leave the state field blank, and have Application B to implement a method to convert the country code.
C) Use XPath expression to assign the country name.
D) Use Lookup transformation which calls a static relationship.

4. Refer to the Exhibit.

The Invoke1, Invoke2 and Invoke3 activities execute very quickly. This business process needs to be implemented as:

A) a microflow for the best performance.
B) a microflow because the Reply activity implies that the interface is synchronous.
C) a long-running process because the Choice activity requires parallel executions.
D) a long-running process because of the event handler.

5. Which of the following are TRUE regarding Service Component Architecture (SCA)?

A) The service component definition is included in a file called .SCDL that can have zero or more interfaces associated with it.
B) Integration developers can concentrate more time on the details of the service implementation.
C) SCA provides a single service component abstraction for services that may already be implemented as business processes.
D) Standard Java classes are used to store data.
E) Without SCA, you must change application code to respond to service implementation changes.
