Modules for Oracle Certified Professional Java SE 17 Developer (1Z0-829) Certification

The Oracle Certified Professional Java SE 17 Developer (1Z0-829) exam is structured around the following modules, each focusing on specific skills and knowledge areas required for professional Java development. These modules are derived from Oracle’s official exam objectives and cover both foundational and advanced Java SE 17 concepts.

1. 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 zone using java.time package and Date/Time API.

2. Controlling Program Flow

   • Create and use loops, including while, do-while, for, and for-each, with nested loops and loop control statements (break, continue).

   • Implement decision constructs using if, else if, switch statements, and switch expressions, including pattern matching for switch.

3. Utilizing Java Object-Oriented Approach

   • Declare and instantiate Java objects, including classes, interfaces, records, and sealed classes; apply access modifiers and encapsulation principles.

   • Use polymorphism, including overriding, overloading, and casting; handle instanceof with pattern matching.

   • Create and use interfaces, including default, static, and private methods; implement functional interfaces and lambda expressions.

   • Use var keyword for local variable type inference.

4. Exception Handling

   • Handle exceptions using try-catch, try-with-resources, and multi-catch blocks; create and throw custom exceptions.

   • Understand exception types (checked, unchecked, and Error) and their hierarchy.

   • Apply best practices for exception handling in real-world scenarios.

5. Working with Arrays and Collections

   • Create, manipulate, and use single and multi-dimensional arrays.

   • Use List, Set, Map, and Queue interfaces from the Java Collections Framework; implement common operations like add, remove, and search.

   • Use streams to process collections, including filtering, mapping, sorting, and reducing; apply parallel streams for performance optimization.

6. Working with Streams and Lambda Expressions

   • Create and use lambda expressions with functional interfaces (e.g., Predicate, Consumer, Function).

   • Use Java Streams API for data processing, including intermediate and terminal operations, lazy evaluation, and collectors.

   • Implement method references and use Optional to handle null values effectively.

7. Packaging and Deploying Java Code and Use the Java Platform Module System

   • Create and manage Java modules using the Java Platform Module System (JPMS); define module directives (requires, exports, opens, uses, provides).

   • Package and deploy Java applications using JAR files and modular JARs; understand module resolution and dependencies.

   • Configure services in a modular application.

8. Managing Concurrent Code Execution

   • Create and manage threads using Thread class, Runnable interface, and ExecutorService for thread pools.

   • Use synchronized blocks, methods, and Lock interfaces to manage thread safety and prevent race conditions.

   • Apply concurrent collections (e.g., ConcurrentHashMap, CopyOnWriteArrayList) and parallel streams for thread-safe operations.

9. Accessing Databases Using JDBC

   • Connect to databases using JDBC API; create and execute SQL queries using Statement, PreparedStatement, and CallableStatement.

   • Handle ResultSet for retrieving and processing query results.

   • Manage database transactions and handle JDBC exceptions effectively.

10. Implementing Localization

    • Use Locale class and resource bundles to localize text and data.

    • Format numbers, currencies, dates, and times using NumberFormat and DateTimeFormatter for locale-specific output.

    • Implement internationalization best practices for global applications.

11. Input/Output API

    • Read and write files using File, Path, and Files classes from the java.nio.file package.

    • Handle file system operations, including creating, deleting, and navigating directories.

    • Use InputStream, OutputStream, Reader, and Writer classes for stream-based I/O operations; serialize and deserialize objects.

12. Securing Java Code

    • Apply security best practices, including input validation and secure coding techniques.

    • Use SecurityManager and understand permissions in Java applications.

    • Implement secure data handling for sensitive information (e.g., passwords, encryption).

13. Testing, Debugging, and Troubleshooting

    • Write unit tests using JUnit or similar frameworks to validate Java code.

    • Debug applications using logging, breakpoints, and stack traces.

    • Troubleshoot common issues like NullPointerException, memory leaks, and performance bottlenecks.
