True

(True/False) The best practice is to add spaces around operators in Gosu.

True

(True/False) The best practice is to surround all logical blocks with curly braces in Gosu, even when they aren’t necessarily needed, such as for a single line if statement.

True

(True/False) The opening brace of a function should go on the same line that starts in, like in Java

True

(True/False) Gosu rules are all formatted in an if-then format

Root Entity

The input parameter for a Gosu rule

Condition

The portion of a Gosu rule that evaluates to either true or false and determines whether the rule is run

Action

The portion of a Gosu rule consisting of code to be run, provided the condition is true

False

(True/False) Gosu Rules code is still executed even if the condition is false

EventMessage

The type of Gosu rule that performs event processing and generates messages about events that have already occurred

Preupdate

The type of Gosu rule that provides domain logic that must happen before the entity is committed

Validation

The type of Gosu rule that verifies the saved data of the entity that must come before the entity is committed to ensure it is valid

True

(True/False) Gosu Rules can have child rules

False

(True/False) If a parent rule condition fails, the child rule is still evaluated

True

(True/False) If a parent Gosu rule is true, the program executes the parent’s action before executing its children

Execute All

The Gosu rule execution strategy where Guidewire executes all rules in the ruleset in hierarchy order

Exit after first action

The Gosu rule execution strategy where Guidewire executes rules in the ruleset until an exit() function is hit

actions.exit()

The function used to stop the processing of further Gosu rules

Validatable

Entities must have this property in the entity metadata in order to be able to trigger a preupdate rule

Logging

The process of recording app actions and state to a secondary interface

Logger

The element which encapsulates a logging category with a logical file nameA

Appender

The output point or destination for a logger, such as an app console or specific log file

Layout

The logging element which defines the log entry format instructions

Trace

The log level for fine-grained informational events at method entry/exit

Debug

The log level for detailed informational events used to diagnose problems

Info

The log level for coarse-grained informational messages of progress during important events or occurrences

Warn

The log level set to indicate potential problems where the user experience has not been affected

Error

The log level set to indicate definite problems where the user experience has been affected

True

(True/False) Loggers inherit the properties of their parent loggers, but can still overwrite them if needed

Structured

Guidewire’s common standard uses a (Regular/Intentional/Structured) logger as the basis

False

(True/False) All exceptions logged are considered errors

Info

In the production environment, the log level is set to ______

False

(True/False) It is acceptable to include sensitive information in logs, such as passwords or tokens, to help diagnose the issue

Common Logging Format

CLF abbreviation stands for

JSON

The de facto standard for message passing, often used alongside loggers

Unicode

The file encoding of JSON format, which makes it universally accesible

Common Logging Format (CLF)

Defines the correct usage of logging in Guidewire Cloud

True

(True/False) Common Logging Format (CLF) is platform-agnostic, meaning it works with both Log4j2 and Structured Logger
