How would you debug an app crash in Android Studio?
This tests your systematic debugging process. A good answer starts with Logcat to find the stack trace, then uses breakpoints to inspect program state *before* the crash occurs. A red flag is randomly adding print statements instead of using the debugger.
This tests your ability to systematically diagnose a problem, not just your knowledge of tools. A strong answer outlines a multi-step process: first, reproduce the crash and analyze the Logcat stack trace. Second, set a breakpoint just before the crash and use the interactive debugger to inspect variable states and expressions. A major red flag is immediately littering the code with log statements, which is inefficient and suggests a lack of familiarity with modern debugging tools.
