Free Practice Questions for Oracle Java SE 21 Developer Professional Certification

1.1: Use primitives and wrapper classes. Evaluate arithmetic and boolean expressions, using the Math API and by applying precedence rules, type conversions, and casting.

1.2: Manipulate text, including text blocks, using String and StringBuilder classes.

1.3: Manipulate date, time, duration, period, instant and time-zone objects including daylight saving time using Date-Time API.

2.1: Create program flow control constructs including if/else, switch statements and expressions, loops, and break and continue statements.

3.1: Declare and instantiate Java objects including nested class objects, and explain the object life-cycle including creation, reassigning references, and garbage collection.

3.2: Create classes and records, and define and use instance and static fields and methods, constructors, and instance and static initializers.

3.3: Implement overloaded methods, including var-arg methods.

3.4: Understand variable scopes, apply encapsulation, and create immutable objects. Use local variable type inference.

3.5: Implement inheritance, including abstract and sealed types as well as record classes. Override methods, including that of the Object class. Implement polymorphism and differentiate between object type and reference type. Perform reference type casting, identify object types using the instanceof operator, and pattern matching with the instanceof operator and the switch construct.

3.6: Create and use interfaces, identify functional interfaces, and utilize private, static, and default interface methods.

3.7: Create and use enum types with fields, methods, and constructors.

4.1: Handle exceptions using try/catch/finally, try-with-resources, and multi-catch blocks, including custom exceptions.

5.1: Create arrays, List, Set, Map and Deque collections, and add, remove, update, retrieve and sort their elements.

6.2: Perform decomposition, concatenation, and reduction, and grouping and partitioning on sequential and parallel streams.

7.1: Define modules and expose module content, including that by reflection, and declare module dependencies, define services, providers, and consumers.

7.2: Compile Java code, create modular and non-modular jars, runtime images, and implement migration to modules using unnamed and automatic modules.

8.1: Create both platform and virtual threads. Use both Runnable and Callable objects, manage the thread lifecycle, and use different Executor services and concurrent API to run tasks.

8.2: Develop thread-safe code, using locking mechanisms and concurrent API.

8.3: Process Java collections concurrently and utilize parallel streams.

11.1: Understand the basics of Java Logging API.

11.2: Use Annotations such as Override, FunctionalInterface, Deprecated, SuppressWarnings, and SafeVarargs.

11.3: Use generics, including wildcards.
