Question 1

A team needs to run different Apex tests for different deployment scenarios (smoke tests vs. full regression). Which feature supports organizing tests into named groups?

Accepted Answer

Apex Test Suites

Answer

Apex Test Suites allow grouping of test classes into named collections that can be run together, supporting different testing scenarios.

Question 2

An architect discovers that a Queueable Apex job is enqueuing additional Queueable jobs in a chain, causing delays. What is the platform limit for Queueable job chaining?

Accepted Answer

Maximum 50 jobs in the Apex flex queue, but no limit on chaining depth

Answer

While the Apex flex queue holds up to 50 Queueable jobs, there is no strict limit on chaining depth, but the flex queue capacity constrains how many can be queued at once.

Question 3

A company wants to validate their deployment package against production before executing it, without making any changes. Which deployment option supports this?

Accepted Answer

Both B and C are correct

Answer

Both the Metadata API checkOnly=true flag and the Change Set 'Validate Only' option perform a test deployment that checks for errors without actually changing the org.

Question 4

Which Apex governor limit applies per-transaction and is MOST commonly violated when processing large datasets in triggers?

Accepted Answer

Maximum CPU time: 10,000ms for synchronous transactions

Answer

CPU time (10,000ms for synchronous, 60,000ms for asynchronous) is the governor limit most commonly hit during complex bulk processing in triggers.

Question 5

An architect wants to ensure that custom metadata changes made by one team do not break another team's work in their respective scratch orgs. What strategy BEST prevents this?

Accepted Answer

Implement feature branch workflows in version control with scratch orgs per feature

Answer

Feature branch workflows with per-feature scratch orgs isolate each team's changes, preventing conflicts until branches are merged through a pull request process.
