The interviewers were calm and interactive. They asked questions that weren't too difficult, but there were some logical ones. They'll ask about your projects and might even ask you to write the code for them.
The interview was all about testing, with questions focused on testing concepts and some data structures. It was a good experience. The first round included aptitude and coding.
First round they asked about CN OS Unix questions, they were easy, and also asked to write code for a real life example and explain it.
