I know I am new so maybe I am not into the spirit of the Microsoft thing.
My answer is to get inside the fridge and shut the door.

Depends upon the job I was applying for!
Since I am shooting for top exec position, I would
see to it that whoever came up with the idea was fired. Then I would steal his notes and pursue the research through quiet channels with a government grant.
After insuring that it would be a noted feature in the documentation and end users would be aware that this was an nessesary function for the proper working of many Windows applications, I would make sure the only way info was available was through our $35.00 per hour help line.
Start a university for Lite research so that bright young engineers would pay me for the privilege of working out my technical problems.
Develop "socket X" light bulbs and by contract tie up all future refrigerator manufacturers to insure that they are using
"socket X" bulbs. (X changes every 6 months!)
Flood the market with Windows compatable light bulbs(Pat Pend) made in a plant I bought in Mexico.
Improved versions would appear every 6 months and not be backward compatable.
Announce improved "Lite Tite 2.35"
for next version of Windows XS Professional version only.
Assume the title of "Father of Lite" for my Newsweek and Time articles.
Sue Linux for their knockoff "Lite emulator"
Take over Linux and buy Wal-mart.
Buy an island with no extradition policy just to be safe.

And when hiring young engineers, ask them how they would test a computer operating system.

Open the door to show the light is on. Turn the temperature setting to the max (so it sin't overly cold inside). After the lightbulb has warmed up a bit, close the frig. Wait a couple minutes, open the frig with the now cool lightbulb. (have to have the refrigeration setting low so you can show it just wasn't the frig cooling the bulb) |

this is the only reasonable answer so far

When you open your refrigerator, you can see a lit light bulb.
How would you prove that the light bulb turns off when the refrigerator door is closed?

You may put you laptop inside your refrigerator and enable the camera and make sure that the camera is on front of the light bulb...

(1) Setup the refrigirator thermostat to room temperature.
(2) Close the door of refrigirator until the refrigirator's temperature will be same with room temperature. (Simply 1 day for sure)
(3) Open the door and touch the light burb to see
the heat. If the light burb was turned on while the door is closed, it must be hot. Otherwise it must be
similar with room temperature. |

I agree with this.

change to a new lightbulb that burns out after being on for a fixed number of hours. Leave the fridge door closed for a long enough time so that if the bulb was on all the time, it would burn out. Open the door to see if light still works.
You can also check your electric bill or something.

The question asks us to PROVE that the light-bulb turns off when the door is closed.
The answer I liked is to just push the button on the refrigerator door to check if the light goes off.
My contribution,
Replace the bulb with a buzzer. You should hear noise when you open the fridge and silence when you close the fridge. (And PLEASE, don't go about saying that the fridge door is sound-proof...)
I think that will prove beyond doubt if the light goes off when the door is closed.
