1Z0-829 Practice Test 7 — 10 Questions

Question 1

A company needs to process a stream of orders and filter out orders that are not in the 'SHIPPED' status. Then they want to collect the order IDs into a list. Which of the following correctly uses lambda expressions to achieve this?

Accepted Answer

orders.stream().filter(o -> o.getStatus().equals("SHIPPED")).map(Order::getId).collect(Collectors.toList()). Option D is correct because it first filters the stream to include only orders with status 'SHIPPED' using a lambda expression that calls equals() on the status string, then maps each order to its ID using a method reference, and finally collects the IDs into a list. This correctly uses lambda expressions and the Stream API to achieve the requirement.

Answer

orders.stream().filter(o -> o.getStatus() != "SHIPPED").map(Order::getId).collect(Collectors.toList())

Answer

orders.stream().map(Order::getId).filter(id -> id.equals("SHIPPED")).collect(Collectors.toList())

Answer

orders.stream().filter(Order::getStatus).map(o -> o.getId()).collect(Collectors.toList())

Question 2

Which TWO statements about Java serialization are true?

Accepted Answer

During deserialization, the constructor of the serialized class is not invoked.. Option B is correct because during deserialization, Java does not invoke the constructor of the class being deserialized. Instead, the object is reconstructed from the serialized stream data using the no-arg constructor of the first non-serializable superclass (if any), and the serialized class's fields are populated via reflection or readObject() methods. This avoids re-executing initialization logic that may have side effects or depend on runtime state.

Answer

The serialVersionUID must be explicitly declared in every serializable class.

Answer

A class that implements Externalizable does not need to implement Serializable.

Answer

Fields marked as transient are serialized by default.

Question 3

A Java application reads configuration from a file using FileInputStream. The application must handle the case where the configuration file is missing by logging a warning and using default values. Which design approach best meets this requirement?

Accepted Answer

Use Files.exists() to check file existence before opening the stream, and if absent, log a warning and use defaults.. Option B is correct because it explicitly checks for file existence using `Files.exists()` before attempting to open the stream, allowing the application to log a warning and fall back to default values without throwing an exception. This approach aligns with the requirement to handle a missing configuration file gracefully, avoiding unnecessary exception handling overhead. The `Files.exists()` method is part of the modern `java.nio.file` API, which is preferred over the legacy `File.exists()` for its better integration with symbolic links and file system operations.

Answer

Wrap the FileInputStream in a try-with-resources and catch Exception to handle missing file.

Answer

Catch FileNotFoundException inside the try block and set default values.

Answer

Use File.exists() to check file existence before opening the stream, and if absent, log a warning and use defaults.

Question 4

A team is developing a large enterprise application using Java 17. The application consists of multiple modules: core (provides logging and configuration), services (business logic), and web (REST endpoints). The modules are packaged as separate JAR files and deployed on a server. During runtime, the web module throws a java.lang.ClassNotFoundException for a class that is part of the core module. The core module's module-info.java exports the package containing the missing class. The web module's module-info.java requires core. However, the services module also needs the same class but uses a different version of it, causing conflicts. The team decides to use the class path for the conflicting package and the module path for the rest. They add the conflicting JAR to the class path and keep the other JARs on the module path. After this change, the web module still cannot find the class, but the services module works fine. What is the most likely cause of the issue?

Accepted Answer

The web module is a named module and cannot access classes from a split package that is also in the unnamed module.. Option C is correct because when a named module (the web module) is on the module path, it cannot access classes from the unnamed module (the class path) if those classes belong to a package that is also exported by another named module on the module path. This creates a split package, which is forbidden by the Java module system. The core module exports the package, so the web module cannot load the class from the class path JAR, resulting in ClassNotFoundException.

Answer

The services module is using an automatic module, which automatically reads the unnamed module, while the web module is a named module that does not.

Answer

The class path is not scanned for JAR files unless the module path is empty.

Answer

The core module's module-info.java does not export the package to the web module; it only exports it to all modules.

Question 5

Which TWO statements are true about the sealed class feature in Java 17?

Accepted Answer

A sealed class restricts which other classes or interfaces may extend or implement it.. Option A is correct because the primary purpose of the sealed class feature is to explicitly control which other classes or interfaces are permitted to extend or implement it. This is achieved by using the `permits` clause to list the allowed subclasses, thereby restricting the inheritance hierarchy.

Answer

A sealed interface cannot use the permits clause.

Answer

The permits clause must list all direct subclasses of a sealed class.

Answer

A sealed class must be declared as abstract.

Question 6

A developer needs to filter a list of transactions where the amount is greater than 100 and collect the results into a new list. Which approach is best practice for readability and performance?

Accepted Answer

transactions.stream().filter(t -> t.getAmount() > 100).collect(Collectors.toList()). Option A is correct because it uses the Stream API's `filter` method to declaratively select transactions with an amount greater than 100, and `collect(Collectors.toList())` to gather results into a new list. This approach is both readable and performant, leveraging lazy evaluation and internal iteration for efficient processing.

Answer

List result = new ArrayList<>(); for(Transaction t : transactions) { if(t.getAmount() > 100) result.add(t); }

Answer

transactions.stream().filter(t -> t.getAmount() > 100).toArray()

Answer

transactions.removeIf(t -> t.getAmount() <= 100)

Question 7

Which TWO statements about the switch statement in Java are true?

Accepted Answer

A break statement is optional.. Option A is correct because in a Java switch statement, the break statement is optional. If omitted, execution falls through to the next case (fall-through behavior), which can be intentional or lead to bugs. This is a core feature of the switch construct, not a requirement.

Answer

A switch statement can be used as an expression in all cases.

Answer

The switch expression can be of type long.

Answer

The case values can be variables.

Question 8

What is the output when the code is executed?

Accepted Answer

Arithmetic
Finally
[stack trace]. Option D is correct because the code throws an ArithmeticException (division by zero) inside the try block, which is caught by the first catch block (ArithmeticException). The finally block always executes after the catch block, printing 'Finally'. The stack trace is printed because the exception is re-thrown in the catch block (implicitly or explicitly) and not handled, causing the program to terminate with an uncaught exception. The output shows 'Arithmetic', then 'Finally', followed by the stack trace.

Answer

Arithmetic
Finally

Answer

Arithmetic
Exception
Finally

Answer

Exception
Finally

Question 9

Which TWO statements about the try-with-resources statement are true? (Choose two.)

Accepted Answer

Resources declared in the try-with-resources block are closed automatically.. Option C is correct because the try-with-resources statement automatically closes each resource declared in the resource specification after the try block completes, whether normally or abruptly. This is the primary purpose of the construct: to ensure reliable resource cleanup without requiring an explicit finally block.

Answer

The resources must implement the Closeable interface.

Answer

Resources can be reassigned inside the try block.

Answer

Multiple resources are separated by commas.
