hi Ekta, let me try to give you clues to get your answer yourself. Automated testing is balanced combination of Coding Skills + Validation mindset so if you are good in coding, learning selenium would be a week job. that too you might be do by self practice. Now coming to your original question, to showcase something which in actual you haven't worked is a risk if not well measured. thats where there is a difference between knowledge & experience. Experience gets you confidence to say on what you have knowledge of. So the key answer is, "yes" if you practice upto a level where your knowledge could be completely utilized from day 1 then a good interviewer/company would have bother about what you have experienced actually. and "No" if your solutions to the asked questions are not meaningful then even if you really have even 10 years experience, its not worth for company. Hope you try the logics I gave to find the answer yourself. read less
