What is ADB? Describe two common commands and what they accomplish.
This tests command-line debugging fluency. Define ADB as a client-server bridge, then give two commands such as adb install for APK deployment and adb logcat for streaming device logs. Red flag: calling it the Android Studio debugger or omitting the daemon.
This tests whether you understand device communication beneath Android Studio. A strong answer defines ADB as a command-line client-server tool with three parts: a client, a daemon on the device, and a server on the host. It then names two commands with syntax and purpose, such as adb install path_to_apk.apk to push and install a package, and adb logcat to stream system and app logs in real time for debugging crashes. Red flag: describing ADB as an Android Studio plugin, confusing it with JDWP, or listing commands without explaining the daemon.
