Exam Topics
Handling date, time, text, numeric and boolean values
Use primitives and wrapper classes including Math API, parentheses, type promotion, and
casting to evaluate arithmetic and boolean expressions
Manipulate text, including text blocks, using String and StringBuilder classes
Manipulate date, time, duration, period, instant and time-zone objects using Date-Time API
Controlling Program Flow
Create program flow control constructs including if/else, switch statements and expressions,
loops, and break and continue statements
Utilizing Java Object-Oriented Approach
Declare and instantiate Java objects including nested class objects, and explain the object
life-cycle including creation, reassigning references, and garbage collection
Create classes and records, and define and use instance and static fields and methods,
constructors, and instance and static initializers
Implement overloading, including var-arg methods
Understand variable scopes, use local variable type inference, apply encapsulation, and
make objects immutable
Implement inheritance, including abstract and sealed classes. Override methods, including
that of Object class. Implement polymorphism and differentiate object type versus
reference type. Perform type casting, identify object types using instanceof operator and
pattern matching
Create and use interfaces, identify functional interfaces, and utilize private, static, and
default interface methods
Create and use enumerations with fields, methods and constructors
Handling Exceptions
Handle exceptions using try/catch/finally, try-with-resources, and multi-catch blocks,
including custom exceptions
Working with Arrays and Collections
Create Java arrays, List, Set, Map, and Deque collections, and add, remove, update, retrieve
and sort their elements
Working with Streams and Lambda expressions
Use Java object and primitive Streams, including lambda expressions implementing
functional interfaces, to supply, filter, map, consume, and sort data
Perform decomposition, concatenation and reduction, and grouping and partitioning on
sequential and parallel streams
Packaging and deploying Java code and use the Java Platform Module System
Define modules and their dependencies, expose module content including for reflection.
Define services, producers, and consumers
Compile Java code, produce modular and non-modular jars, runtime images, and implement
migration using unnamed and automatic modules
Managing concurrent code execution
Create worker threads using Runnable and Callable, manage the thread lifecycle, including
automations provided by different Executor services and concurrent API
Develop thread-safe code, using different locking mechanisms and concurrent API
Process Java collections concurrently including the use of parallel streams
Using Java I/O API
Read and write console and file data using I/O Streams
Serialize and de-serialize Java objects
Create, traverse, read, and write Path objects and their properties using java.nio.file API
Accessing databases using JDBC
Create connections, create and execute basic, prepared and callable statements, process
query results and control transactions using JDBC API
Implementing Localization
Implement localization using locales, resource bundles, parse and format messages, dates,
times, and numbers including currency and percentage values
Assume the following:
Missing package and import statements: If sample code do not include package or import
statements, and the question does not explicitly refer to these missing statements, then
assume that all sample code is in the same package, or import statements exist to support
them.
No file or directory path names for classes: If a question does not state the file names or
directory locations of classes, then assume one of the following, whichever will enable the
code to compile and run:
All classes are in one file
Each class is contained in a separate file, and all files are in one directory
Unintended line breaks: Sample code might have unintended line breaks. If you see a line of
code that looks like it has wrapped, and this creates a situation where the wrapping is
significant (for example, a quoted String literal has wrapped), assume that the wrapping is
an extension of the same line, and the line does not contain a hard carriage return that
would cause a compilation failure.
Code fragments: A code fragment is a small section of source code presented without its
context. Assume that all necessary supporting code exists and that the supporting
environment fully supports the correct compilation and execution of the code shown and its
omitted environment.
Descriptive comments: Take descriptive comments, such as "setter and getters go here," at
face value. Assume that correct code exists, compiles, and runs successfully to create the
described effect.
Candidates are also expected to:
Understand the basics of Java Logging API.
Use Annotations such as Override, Functionallnterface, Deprecated, SuppressWarnings, and
SafeVarargs.
Use generics, including wildcards.
