Which of the following describes the correct hierarchy of the elements in the Object Repository tree structure?

1. A. Screen, Application, Version, UI Element.
2. B. Application, Version, Screen, UI Element.
3. C. Application, Screen, UI Element, Version.
4. D. Version, Application, Screen, UI Element.

Correct Answer: B
The Object Repository tree structure follows a hierarchical order that starts with the Application node, which represents the application or system that contains the UI elements to be automated. Under the Application node, there can be one or more Version nodes, which specify the version of the application or system. Each Version node can have one or more Screen nodes, which represent the different screens or windows of the application or system. Finally, each Screen node can have one or more UI Element nodes, which are the individual UI elements that can be used for automation. (UiPath Automation Developer study guide)

What method can be used to change the index of an existing column in a datatable?

1. A. Setlndex
2. B. MoveAt
3. C. SetColumnIndex
4. D. SetOrdinal

Correct Answer: D
The SetOrdinal method of the DataColumn class can be used to change the index or position of an existing column in a datatable. The method takes an integer argument that specifies the new ordinal or position of the column. For example, to move the first column to the last position, one can
use: yourDataTable.Columns(0).SetOrdinal(yourDataTable.Columns.Count - 1). (UiPath Automation Developer study guide)

A developer has defined an Int32 variable called IntVar The developer has written the following expression in a Log Message activity.
Convert. ToBoolean(lntVar)
If IntVar = 0, what is displayed in the Output panel after the execution of the Log Message activity?

1. A. The value True is displayed
2. B. A System ArgumentNullException is displayed
3. C. A System.InvalidCastException is displayed
4. D. The value False is displayed

Correct Answer: D
The Convert.ToBoolean method converts a specified value to a Boolean value, which can be either True or False. The method can accept different types of values, such as numbers, strings, objects, etc. However, the conversion rules depend on the type of the value. For numbers, the conversion rule is as follows1:
✑ If the value is zero, the method returns False.
✑ If the value is non-zero, the method returns True.
Therefore, if the IntVar variable is an Int32 variable with the value 0, the expression Convert.ToBoolean(IntVar) will return False. The Log Message activity will display the
value False in the Output panel after the execution. References: Convert.ToBoolean Method from UiPath documentation.

What are the components that define a state within a State Machine in UiPath Studio?

1. A. Activities, Connectors, and Annotations.
2. B. Input Arguments, Output Arguments, and Variables.
3. C. Sequence, Flowchart, and Transactional Business Process.
4. D. Entry, Exit, and Transition Actions with Trigger Conditions.

Correct Answer: D
A state in a State Machine is a set of actions that execute while the workflow is in a certain condition1. Each state has three components: Entry, Exit, and Transition Actions2. Entry Actions are executed when the state is entered, Exit Actions are executed when the state is exited, and Transition Actions are executed when a transition is triggered by a condition3.

Suppose a developer is working with a 2023 yearly calendar. To expand the calendar into a monthly view, the developer must always click on the 15th day of the current month and add an event.
The selector for the Event Date Element activity in March is presented as follows:


How should the selector be altered to guarantee that it clicks on the 15th of the ongoing month?

1. A. <wnd app='applicationframehost.exe' title='Month View - Calendar' /><uia cls='Day' name='15 * 2023' />
2. B. <wnd app='applicationframehost.exe' title='Month View - Calendar' /><uia cls='Day' name='15* 20 ?? ' />
3. C. <wnd app='applicationframehost.exe' title='Month View - Calendar' /><uia cls='Day' name='*15*' />
4. D. <wnd app='applicationframehost.exe' title='Month View - Calendar' /><uia cls='Day' name='15 ? 20 ?? ' />

Correct Answer: B
This is the correct option because it uses wildcards to replace the dynamic parts of the selector. Wildcards are symbols that enable you to replace zero or multiple characters in a string. They are useful when dealing with attributes that change dynamically in the selector. There are two types of wildcards: asterisk () and question mark (?). The asterisk () replaces zero or more characters, while the question mark (?) replaces a single character. In this case, the name attribute of the target element changes according to the month, but the day and the year remain constant. Therefore, the selector can be altered by replacing the month name with an asterisk () and the last two digits of the year with two question marks (??). This way, the selector will match any element that has the name starting with 15, followed by any characters, followed by 20, followed by any two characters. For example, the selector will match 15 March 2023, 15 April 2023, 15 May 2023, etc. The other options are incorrect because they either do not use wildcards, or they use them incorrectly. Option A does not replace the last two digits of the year, which may change in the future. Option C replaces too many characters with the asterisk (), which may cause ambiguity or false matches. Option D uses the question mark (?) incorrectly, as it should be used for single characters, not for spaces or multiple characters. References: Selectors With Wildcards
