Software Design Pattern Trivia Questions
Do you think you can handle these Software Design Pattern Trivia Questions? Today there are a lot of people who are software designers but a few know how the design pattern is structured and how it might vary. Are you among this group of people or are you highly skilled? Take up the quiz below and get to see how well you will do.

Strategy
- C.
Bridge

- A.
Interpreter
- B.
Prototype
- C.
Flyweight
- D.
Decorator
- 12.Which Design Pattern should you use when....

Facade
- B.
Adapter
- C.
Visitor
- D.
Decorator
- 13.Which Design Pattern should you use when....
- you want to add responsibilities to individual objects dynamically and transparently, that is, without affecting other objects.
- A.
Visitor
- B.
Proxy
- C.
Decorator
- D.
Memento
- 14.Which Design Pattern should you use when....
- there must be exactly one instance of a class, and it must be accessible to clients from a wellknown access point.
- A.
Bridge
- B.
Singleton
- C.
Prototype
- D.
Factory Method
- 15.Which Design Pattern should you use when....
- there is a language to interpret, and you can represent statements in the language as abstract syntax trees.
- A.
Interpreter
- B.
Singleton
- C.
Facade
- D.
Composite
- 16.Which Design Pattern should you use when....
- you want to use an existing class, and its interface does not match the one you need.
- A.
Adapter
- B.
Decorator
- C.
Mediator
- D.
Proxy
- 17.Which Design Pattern should you use when....

- A.
Facade
- B.
Factory Method
- C.
Template Method
- D.
Mediator
- 18.Which Design Pattern should you use when....
- a system should be configured with one of multiple families of products.
- A.
Builder
- B.
Abstract Factory
- C.
Factory Method
- D.
Composite
- 19.Which Design Pattern should you use when....
- When an object should be able to notify other objects without making assumptions about who these objects are. In other words, you don't want these objects tightly coupled.
- A.
Visitor
- B.
Adapter
- C.
Observer
- D.
Chain Of Responsibility
- 20.Which Design Pattern should you use when....
- a system should be independent of how its products are created, composed, and represented; and when the classes to instantiate are specified at run-time, for example, by dynamic loading
- A.
Prototype
- B.
Facade
- C.
Abstract Factory
- D.
Flyweight
- 21.Which Design Pattern should you use when....

Observer
- B.
Chain of Responsibility
- C.
Decorator
