This free ITIL4F practice test mirrors the structure and difficulty of the real ITIL 4 Foundation exam. Every question is written against the official 2026 exam blueprint published by PeopleCert, ensuring you practise exactly what the exam tests — not last year's objectives.
The ITIL4F blueprint is divided into 8weighted domains. Questions on this page are distributed proportionally across each domain, so the mix you see here reflects the same weighting you'll face on exam day. High-weight domains like ITIL Service Value System and The Four Dimensions of Service Management contribute the most questions, meaning focused practice on these areas gives you the highest return on study time.

55 numbered sets, 8 domain question banks, and targeted sessions — every page is a unique set of questions.
Choose all correct answers
Each chapter page covers one topic in depth — theory, key concepts, and focused practice questions. Use these to close knowledge gaps before returning to full practice tests.
Getting the most from practice questions requires more than just clicking through answers. Here is the study method used by candidates who pass ITIL4F on their first attempt:
Answer before revealing
Read each ITIL4F question fully, eliminate obviously wrong choices, then commit to an answer before clicking to reveal. This active recall process is what builds lasting knowledge.
Read every explanation
Even when you answer correctly, read the full explanation. Knowing WHY the right answer is correct — and why the distractors are wrong — is what separates a 750 score from a 900 score.
Track weak domains
Note which ITIL4F domains you get wrong most often. Then do a targeted 20-30 question session focused only on that domain until your accuracy improves.
Simulate exam pacing
The real ITIL4F gives you roughly 1.5 minutes per question. Use the 60 or 120-question sessions to practise hitting that pace comfortably.
Most candidates who pass ITIL4F on their first attempt report doing between 400 and 800 practice questions over 4–8 weeks of preparation. With 805+ questions in the Courseiva bank, you have more than enough material to build that repetition without seeing the same question twice.

You are the IT service manager for a medium-sized e-commerce company that processes online orders. The company uses a three-tier application architecture: a web server, an application server, and a database server. Recently, the company has been experiencing intermittent service degradation during peak hours (12:00-14:00 and 18:00-20:00), causing slow page loads and occasional timeouts. The monitoring system shows that CPU utilization on the application server spikes to 95% during these periods, while the web server and database server remain below 60%. The incident management team has been opening multiple tickets for the same issue, but each ticket is resolved by restarting the application server, which temporarily restores performance. The problem management team has been assigned to investigate the root cause. They have discovered that a recent software update to the application introduced a memory leak that gradually consumes resources until the server becomes overloaded. The development team has identified a fix but needs two weeks to fully test and deploy it. Meanwhile, the business is losing revenue due to poor performance. Which of the following actions should the problem management team take FIRST?

A multinational retail company has recently migrated its e-commerce platform to a new cloud infrastructure. The IT operations team consists of 15 members distributed across three regions (Americas, EMEA, APAC). They use a centralized service desk tool that logs all incidents and service requests.

The service desk has been creating workarounds for each incident but has not yet identified any root causes. The IT manager wants to reduce the incident volume and improve service stability. The team is also under pressure to keep costs low. Which course of action should the IT manager take first?

Answer all 20 questions to see your domain score breakdown
A structured study plan dramatically increases your chances of passing ITIL4F on the first attempt. The most effective approach combines reading the official PeopleCert documentation or a study guide, watching video explanations for difficult concepts, and then reinforcing everything with daily practice questions.
We recommend the following weekly structure for ITIL4F preparation:
Cover each ITIL4F domain systematically. Read the exam objectives, watch explanatory content, and do 10–20 practice questions per domain to test understanding as you go.
Run full 50–60 question mixed sessions daily. Review every wrong answer in detail. Identify which domains are consistently scoring below 70% and revisit those study materials.
Do 100–120 question timed sessions to simulate real exam conditions. Aim for consistent scores above 80% before booking your exam date. A score above 80% in practice typically translates to a passing ITIL4F score.
On exam day, the ITIL4F tests your ability to apply knowledge to realistic scenarios — not just recall definitions. This is why reading explanations and understanding the reasoning behind every answer matters more than simply grinding question volume. Use the high-count sessions (100, 120) in the final weeks as your confidence benchmark.

Scaled scoring
The ITIL4F exam uses a scaled scoring system — your raw score of correct answers is converted to a score out of 1000. A passing score of 650/1000 does not mean you need 65% of questions correct; the conversion accounts for question difficulty. Consistently scoring above 75–80% on practice tests puts you in a strong position to achieve 650/1000 on the real exam.

Every question is written against the official ITIL4F exam blueprint published by PeopleCert. Our questions follow the same wording style, scenario complexity, and answer structure as the actual exam. They are original questions — not brain dumps — so you learn the underlying concepts and reasoning, not just memorised answers. Candidates who study with brain dumps often pass but have no transferable knowledge; Courseiva questions make you genuinely competent.
Most candidates who pass ITIL4F on their first attempt do 30–60 questions per day. Use the Quick 10 session for daily warm-ups when you are short on time. On study days, run a 50 or 60-question session to build stamina. Reserve 100 and 120-question sessions for the final two weeks when you want to simulate real exam conditions and benchmark your readiness.
The ITIL4F covers 8 domains: ITIL Service Value System (13%), The Four Dimensions of Service Management (13%), ITIL Guiding Principles (13%), The ITIL Service Value System (13%), Four Dimensions of IT Service Management (12%), Key Concepts of ITIL 4 (12%), ITIL Management Practices (12%), Key Concepts of IT Service Management (12%). Each domain carries a different weight, so allocate your study time accordingly. The highest-weighted domains — ITIL Service Value System and The Four Dimensions of Service Management — should receive the most attention.
Exam dumps are memorised question-and-answer lists taken from actual exam papers, often obtained illegally and shared without PeopleCert's authorisation. Using them violates your NDA and PeopleCert's certification agreement, and can result in certification revocation. Courseiva questions are original — AI-assisted, checked against the official exam objectives, and published under the editorial oversight of an engineer with 12+ years' experience. They test the same knowledge areas using new scenarios and wording. You learn the material, not just the answers.
