The Java 17 test verifies that the test taker has both basic (flow control) and intermediate (generics) programming skills, as well as some optional advanced skills, such as multithreading and multitasking programming techniques. The question types and difficulty vary to ensure that the test taker is fully tested on all aspects of Java 17 development. Many questions are Java 17-specific, applying only to Java 17, but others are based on previous version skills that work within Java 17.
