5 interview questions — practise the English for strong Storybook and component documentation responses.
0 / 5 completed
1 / 5
The interviewer asks: "What is the Component Story Format (CSF) and why does Storybook use it?"
Option C is strongest: explains what CSF is, WHY it uses ES modules (portability, tooling compatibility), and the CSF 3 improvement. This shows awareness of the broader ecosystem, not just Storybook usage.
2 / 5
The interviewer asks: "How do args power the Controls addon?"
Option C explains the mechanism (Controls reads args), the benefit (interactive without code edits), and the composition model. This shows you understand how the pieces fit together, not just that args exist.
3 / 5
The interviewer asks: "How do you test interaction behaviour in Storybook?"
Option C describes the full picture: play function, userEvent, real browser execution, and CI automation via test-runner. The "no duplication" point is key — one play function serves both interactive docs and automated tests.
4 / 5
The interviewer asks: "When would you add a decorator vs a global parameter in Storybook?"
Option C gives a clear decision rule: decorators for UI wrapping (need to render something), parameters for addon/canvas configuration (configure, not render). This distinction shows deep familiarity with how Storybook's architecture works.
5 / 5
The interviewer asks: "How does Storybook help with design-development collaboration?"
Option C articulates the business value: shared reference, no dev environment needed for designers, Chromatic for PR review. This is the kind of answer a senior engineer who has actually used Storybook in a team gives — showing cross-functional impact, not just technical knowledge.
