SKILL BENCHMARK
Oracle Certified Professional: Java SE 11 Developer Proficiency (Advanced Level)
- 30m
- 30 questions
The Java SE 11 Developer Proficiency benchmark measures your knowledge of streams and pipelines in Java and performing lambda operations. You will be evaluated on your skills in performing file I/O operations, managing metadata, walking a file tree using NIO.2, deploying JAR files, and applying modular design principles. You will also be assessed on your ability to work with services, migrate applications from previous Java versions, work with java.util.concurrent collections, and write thread-safe code. A learner who scores high on this benchmark demonstrates that they have the skills to work with streams, perform lambda operations, implement NIO.2, perform migrations, and manage services.
Topics covered
- apply reduction on parallel operations for concurrency management
