Practice & Mock Exams
Full-length 60-question mock exams modeled after the real Spring Professional Develop (2V0-72.22) test.
Unlike the book chapters, these mocks mix all exam domains in one sitting — the same way the real certification does.
How to Use These Mocks
- Treat each set as a real exam — no notes on the first pass.
- Set a 130-minute timer.
- Pick an option for each question, then click Check answer to reveal the explanation and score.
- Use Back and Next to move through the set. You can change your selection until you check.
- For every miss, read the explanation and add one memory sentence before moving on.
- Follow the study links back to the book chapters.
These questions test behavior and internals (proxies, context loading, transaction boundaries, filter order, slice scope), not just annotation names.

What Ready Looks Like
You are exam-ready on mocks when you can consistently score 85%+ on a timed run without peeking at explanations.
Philosophy
All questions here are original. They reinforce the mental models from the main book, with clear right/wrong explanations and links back to theory.
Use these after you have studied the certification track and the relevant book chapters.
Good luck — and remember: explain what Spring is actually doing under the hood.
