Answers for "method overriding java"

method overloading in java

Method overloading is providing 
two separate methods in a class 
with the same name but different arguments,
while the method return type 
may or may not be different, which
allows us to reuse the same method name.
In my framework==
I use implicit wait in Selenium. Implicit wait
is an example of overloading. In Implicit wait
we use different time stamps such as SECONDS, MINUTES, HOURS etc.,
A class having multiple methods with
same name but different parameters 
is called Method Overloading

overloading and overriding in java

Method overloading is providing two separate methods in a class with the same name but different arguments, while the method return type may or may not be different, which allows us to reuse the same method name.

Method overriding means defining a method in a child class that is already defined in the parent class with the same method signature, same name, arguments, and return type

what's method overriding

Overriding means same method name and same parameter, 
occur in different class that has inheritance relationship. 
we use method overriding to implement specific functionality to the method.

Example: get method
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("URL") ==> opens the url from chrome

WebDriver driver = new FireFoxDriver();
driver.get("URL") ==> opens the url from Firefox

we can only override instance methods and method override 
takes place in sub class.
instance method that we are going to override cannot be private and final

method overriding java

Method Overloading: 
Access modifier can be same or different, 
Return-Type can be same or different, 
Parameters MUST be different, Method name MUST be same, 
any method can be overloaded

Method Overriding:
After a method is inherited it is possible to change 
the implantation of the method in the child class. 
This concept is called overriding. 
Method name, Parameter, and Return-Type MUST be same
access modifier MUST be same or more visible, 
MUST happen in the sub class, 
ONLY the instance methods can be overridden
@Override annotation MUST be applicable. 
Static and Constructor cannot be override.
We can use the @Override annotation before the method 
to declare the overriding.
EXAMPLE: get method WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver(); 
driver.get("URL") ==> opens the url from chrome

overriding in java

Overriding means same method name and same parameter,

we use method overriding to implement 
specific functionality to the method. 

Examples are get and navigate methods
of different drivers in Selenium .

Example: get method
WebDriver driver = new ChromeDriver();
driver.get("URL") ==> opens the url from chrome

WebDriver driver = new FireFoxDriver();
driver.get("URL") ==> opens the url from Firefox

we can only override instance methods and method override 
takes place in sub class.

WebDriver driver = new FireFoxDriver();
