- What is the base layer of the testing pyramid?
- Unit tests.
- What kinds of non-functional tests are there?
- Performance, endurance, security, availability, integrity, and usability.
- What is the name of a famous method for root cause analysis?
- 5 whys
- Is it possible to test compile-time code in C++?
- Yes, for example, using static_assert.
- What should you use when writing unit tests for code with external dependencies?
- Test doubles such as mocks and fakes.
- What is the role of unit tests in Continuous Integration/Continuous Deployment?
- They are the basis of a gating mechanism and act as an early warning feature.
- Name some tools that allow the testing of infrastructure code.
- Serverspec, Testinfra, Goss.
- Is it a good idea to access the class's private attributes and methods in a unit test?
- You should design classes in such a way that you never have to access their private attributes directly.

Overview of this book
Software architecture refers to the high-level design of complex applications. It is evolving just like the languages we use, but there are architectural concepts and patterns that you can learn to write high-performance apps in a high-level language without sacrificing readability and maintainability.
If you're working with modern C++, this practical guide will help you put your knowledge to work and design distributed, large-scale apps. You'll start by getting up to speed with architectural concepts, including established patterns and rising trends, then move on to understanding what software architecture actually is and start exploring its components.
Next, you'll discover the design concepts involved in application architecture and the patterns in software development, before going on to learn how to build, package, integrate, and deploy your components. In the concluding chapters, you'll explore different architectural qualities, such as maintainability, reusability, testability, performance, scalability, and security. Finally, you will get an overview of distributed systems, such as service-oriented architecture, microservices, and cloud-native, and understand how to apply them in application development.
By the end of this book, you'll be able to build distributed services using modern C++ and associated tools to deliver solutions as per your clients' requirements.
