I have read in HttpServlet documentation that

A subclass of HttpServlet must override at least one method, usually one of these:

doGet, if the servlet supports HTTP GET requests
doPost, for HTTP POST requests
doPut, for HTTP PUT requests
doDelete, for HTTP DELETE requests
init and destroy, to manage resources that are held for the life of the servlet
getServletInfo, which the servlet uses to provide information about itself

What rule that helps compiler in checking that any one of the above method is overrided in subclass?

    Nothing. You (actually, the enduser) will just face a HTTP 405 Method Not Implemented error when requesting the servlet using a non-overridden HTTP method, because that’s what the default implementation does.
