About the Test

The questions cover the general react js, the main components used in react, React Router techniques, and the testing libraries used in ReactJS.

React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. It was developed by Facebook, and is often used for building single-page applications and mobile applications.

React allows developers to create reusable UI components. It also uses a virtual DOM (a lightweight in-memory representation of the real DOM), which allows for efficient updates to the actual DOM. This can help improve the performance of web applications, as it reduces the need to directly manipulate the DOM and allows for more efficient rendering of components.

Overall, React is a popular choice for building modern web and mobile applications due to its declarative style, performance benefits, and the ability to create reusable components.

1

Introduction

React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces. It was developed by Facebook, and is often used for building single-page applications and mobile applications. React allows developers to create reusable UI components, and it uses a virtual DOM to improve the performance of web applications.

2

Components

In React, a component is a piece of reusable code that represents a part of a UI. Components can be used to represent simple UI elements, such as a button or a form, or more complex UI elements, such as a navigation bar or a product list. Components can be composed of other components, allowing developers to build large, complex UI applications from smaller, reusable pieces.

3

ReactJS Router

React Router is a popular library for routing in React applications. It allows developers to define the routes in their application, and to specify the components that should be rendered for each route. This allows developers to create single-page applications with multiple views, and to update the UI in response to changes in the route.

4

Testing patterns in React

There are various testing patterns that can be used in React applications. One popular approach is to use unit tests to test individual components in isolation, and to use integration tests to test the behavior of multiple components together. Testing tools such as Jest and Enzyme are often used to help with testing React applications. It’s also important to consider testing best practices, such as writing tests that are easy to understand, maintain, and debug, and using test-driven development (TDD) to ensure that the application is thoroughly tested.

The test is created by a subject-matter expert

Testlify’s skill tests are designed by experienced SMEs (subject matter experts). We evaluate these experts based on specific metrics such as expertise, capability, and their market reputation. Prior to being published, each skill test is peer-reviewed by other experts and then calibrated based on insights derived from a significant number of test-takers who are well-versed in that skill area. Our inherent feedback systems and built-in algorithms enable our SMEs to refine our tests continually.

Top five hard skills interview questions for React

1. How do you manage component state in React, and what’s the difference between state and props?
Why this Matters?

This question helps to test the candidate’s knowledge of fundamental React concepts like state and props, as well as their ability to manage state in a React component.

What to listen for?

Listen for the candidate to provide a clear explanation of the differences between state and props, and how they use React’s built-in state management tools, like the useState hook, to manage component state.

2. What is the virtual DOM in React, and how does it help with performance?
Why this Matters?

Understanding the virtual DOM is a fundamental concept in React, and knowing how it works can help a React developer write more efficient and performant code.

What to listen for?

Listen for the candidate to provide a clear explanation of the virtual DOM, and how it differs from the actual DOM. They should also be able to explain how the virtual DOM helps improve performance in React.

3. How do you handle user input in React, and what are some common ways to validate and sanitize user input?
Why this Matters?

Handling user input is a crucial aspect of building user interfaces in React, and being able to validate and sanitize user input is essential for building secure and reliable applications.

What to listen for?

What to listen for?

Listen for the candidate to provide a clear explanation of how React Router works, and how they use it to manage client-side routing in a single-page application. They should be able to explain how to define routes, handle route parameters, and navigate between routes.

5. What are React hooks, and how do you use them to manage state and lifecycle events in a functional component?
Why this Matters?

React hooks are a powerful tool for managing state and lifecycle events in a functional React component, and knowing how to use them is essential for writing efficient and maintainable code.

What to listen for?

Listen for the candidate to provide a clear explanation of React hooks, including how they work and the benefits they provide. They should be able to explain how to use built-in hooks like useState and useEffect, as well as how to create custom hooks to encapsulate reusable logic in a functional component.
