This tests your knowledge of core Android Studio debugging tools. A great answer names the Layout Inspector, describes its 3D component tree and attributes pane, and notes its live update capability on API 29+. A red flag is only mentioning XML files.
This tests your practical knowledge of Android Studio's UI debugging tools. A strong answer identifies the Layout Inspector and describes its key features: the component tree for visualizing the hierarchy, the attributes pane for inspecting properties and their sources, and the 3D mode for understanding overlap. Mentioning its live update feature (API 29+) and Compose support is a huge plus. A red flag is describing only static analysis of XML files instead of the runtime tool.
