Gradle is an open-source system that focuses on the theories of Apache Ant and Maven. Yes, that sounds interesting (at least to the techies) and you should cement your knowledge with some questions.

Questions and Answers

1.

Gradle was designed for multi-project builds, which can grow to be quiet?
- A.
  
  Large
- B.
  
  Slow
- C.
  
  Disruptive
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Large

Explanation
Gradle was designed for multi-project builds, which means it can handle large-scale projects with multiple modules or sub-projects. As the project grows in size, Gradle is able to efficiently manage and build the entire project structure. Therefore, the correct answer is "Large."

It supports incremental builds by intelligently determining which parts of the build tree are up?
- A.
  
  To date
- B.
  
  Running
- C.
  
  Available
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
A. To date

Explanation
The correct answer is "To date". This suggests that the system or tool being referred to has the ability to support incremental builds by intelligently determining which parts of the build tree are up to date. This means that it can identify and only rebuild the parts of the project that have been modified or require updating, saving time and resources in the build process.

Gradle initial plugins are primarily focused on?
- A.
  
  Java
- B.
  
  Groovy
- C.
  
  Scala
- D.
  
  All of the above
Correct Answer
D. All of the above

Explanation
The correct answer is "All of the above" because Gradle, as a build automation tool, supports multiple programming languages including Java, Groovy, and Scala. Gradle provides plugins and configurations specific to each language, allowing developers to build and manage projects written in any of these languages. Therefore, the initial plugins provided by Gradle are designed to cater to the needs of developers working with Java, Groovy, and Scala.

Gradle java plugin emulates many of the expected?
- A.
  
  Maven lifecyles
- B.
  
  Groovy
- C.
  
  XML
- D.
  
  Olap
Correct Answer
A. Maven lifecyles

Explanation
The correct answer is Maven lifecyles. The Gradle java plugin emulates many of the expected Maven lifecycles. This means that it provides similar functionality and behavior as Maven when it comes to building and managing Java projects. Gradle allows developers to define build lifecycles, which are a series of tasks that are executed in a specific order. These lifecycles can be customized and extended to fit the specific needs of the project. Overall, the Gradle java plugin aims to provide a seamless transition for developers who are familiar with Maven and its lifecycles.

For projects that do not follow Maven conventions, Gradle allows directory structure to be?
- A.
  
  Run
- B.
  
  Configured
- C.
  
  Displayed
- D.
  
  All of the above
Correct Answer
B. Configured

Explanation
Gradle allows the directory structure to be configured for projects that do not follow Maven conventions. This means that developers can customize the directory structure according to their specific project requirements, instead of being restricted to the default structure defined by Maven.

Gradle has a very tight integration with?
- A.
  
  Ionic
- B.
  
  Ant
- C.
  
  Python
- D.
  
  Embarcadero
Correct Answer
B. Ant

Explanation
Gradle has a very tight integration with Ant. Ant is a build automation tool that is commonly used in Java projects, and Gradle allows for seamless integration with Ant scripts. This integration allows developers to leverage the existing Ant build scripts and tasks within their Gradle builds, making it easier to migrate from Ant to Gradle or to incorporate Ant functionality into a Gradle build.

Graddle can grow large as it was designed for?
- A.
  
  Java
- B.
  
  Maven
- C.
  
  Ant
- D.
  
  Multi-project builds
Correct Answer
D. Multi-project builds

Explanation
Graddle can grow large as it was designed for multi-project builds. Graddle is a build automation tool that is specifically designed to handle complex projects with multiple modules or sub-projects. It provides a flexible and scalable approach to managing dependencies, building, and testing multiple projects within a single build. This makes it suitable for large-scale software development projects where there is a need to manage and coordinate the build process of multiple interconnected components.

Apache Ant and Apache Maven introduce a Groovy-based?
- A.
  
  Domain specific language
- B.
  
  Data dictionary
- C.
  
  Syntax
- D.
  
  None of the above
Correct Answer
A. Domain specific language

Explanation
Apache Ant and Apache Maven introduce a Groovy-based domain specific language. This means that they provide a specialized programming language that is tailored to a particular domain or problem space. In this case, the domain specific language introduced by Ant and Maven is based on the Groovy programming language. This allows developers to write build scripts and manage dependencies using a syntax that is specifically designed for these tasks, making it easier and more efficient to work with Ant and Maven.

Correct Answer
D. Configuration

Explanation
The XML form used by Apache Maven for declaring the project is called "Configuration". This form allows developers to specify various settings and parameters for the Maven project, such as dependencies, build plugins, repositories, and other project-specific configurations. It is used to define how the project should be built, packaged, and deployed.
