Regarding the OCPJP7 exam simulator I got to know that it contains 607 questions. Can I visit each question at least once if I go through all the practice tests?

Not the practice tests. You should use the Standard Tests. They cover all the questions.

Not sure if this is the right forum,

but would it be possible to add a function to select code in the question area
so it can be pasted in a editor? Currently there is 'copy view text' but it add's incorrect/invalid UTF characters and includes the questions so we need to edit it in a editor to get working code.

The code now looks like this:Image

It would be nice if I can just select the code I need that's already properly formatted, this with correct linebreaks and not the incorrect utf characters.
I looked in a hex editor and the characters added a re : A0 C2

ETS Viewer's latest version 3.72 lets you copy the code from the problem statement without junk characters.
To do so, right click on the code (no selection is required) and click "Copy view text" menu item to copy all the contents of the problem statement to clipboard.

This menu is displayed only if there is code in the problem statement. Otherwise, you can just highlight the text you want to copy and click control+c.

HTH,
Paul.

Today I had to update the Full Question Bank of OCP Java SE 8 Programmer II Exam (OCPJP-II) 1Z0-809 from your servers. Could I know which changes did you do between this version and the earlier?

Thanks in advance.

I'm using Enthuware Test Studio v3.82 Build : 20170401, it appears that when I used the above technique (with TextPad), (808: Test 2: Question 6) Movable.java is the only file that javac doesn't complain about regarding the special characters, while Donkey.java and TestClass.java don't fare as well. What am I missing and/or what's the most effective way of making the entire copy and paste happen? Thanks in advance!

I tried it just now. Right clicked and selected "Copy View Text". All of the class compiled fine. No special characters were copied. Of course, you will need to remove the line that says, "Identify the correct statement(s)."

To what extent does the simulator simulate the actual test in terms of the gui?

In particular:
Does the real test allow you to select, by dragging through, sections of code that I'm trying to think about?
Does the real test offer the right-click strike-through facility?
Does the real test let you mark questions as you proceed and offer a link to a review where you can see what's answered, what's marked and then jump to any question?
Does the real test have a timer at the top?

I'm assuming the real test doesn't tell you what topic is being tested, or how difficult the question is.

It is quite close. Other than the answers part, of course.

There seems to be a bug when continuing a test that is in progress. When you double click a question from the test overview, a dialog pops up asking you if you wish to continue from the selected question (YES), or from where you left it last (NO). When I choose 'NO' it always starts at question 1 instead of where I left off.

This with Enthuware Test Studio v3.93, build: 20180516 on Windows 10, Java 10.0.2.

If the test is finished, it will start from where ever you click. If the test is still on going then it remembers your place. We have noted your feedback and improve it.

thank you for your feedback!

I like to add comments/notes to questions right after I answer them.
I need to be quick with my notes because the time keeps running while I'm writing, I think you should add the option to enable time pause when adding comments.

Also, I have the same behavior as Rick mentioned regarding continuing exam on selected question or where I left off. My exam is still in progress, I select "No" to continue where I left off and It takes me to question 1.

I am running v3.93, build: 20180516 on Windows 10, Java 1.8.0_161

This is how it is supposed to function when the test is paused (note, paused, not finished):
1. If double click on a row, it pops up a dialog asking you about where you want to start the test from. See attached image test1.png. I paused the test when I was at q7. Then on the review screen, I double clicked on q3 and this dialog popped up.
test1.png
test1.png (41.12 KiB) Viewed 55809 times
2. When I clicked Yes, the q3 was displayed. I.e. the restarted from question no 3.
3. Did the same thing again. i.e. went up to q7, clicked on Review, and then Pause, and then double clicked on No. In this case, question 7 was displayed. i.e. test restarted from question no 7.

4. When the test is already finished, this popup is not shown and the user is simply taken to the question they double clicked.

Please let us know if the steps that you took so that we can reproduce the behavior that you described.

I think I have found the issue that you are talking about. The problem that you have described happens when you close the test window and reopen it. In this case, the test starts from question 1.

We have applied a fix to address this issue. Please try the new viewer jar: http://enthuware.com/etsviewer/etsviewernew.jar and let me know if this works for you.

Paul.

Enthuware Test Studio v3.93 is not working on my laptop and it shows windows update error 80070103 whenever I tried to run it. Any idea about this kind of error?

So, just to be clear: In the actual test, I can go back and forth between questions? Because there were a couple times in the mock exam where I went back to correct my answer for an earlier question when I realized I was wrong based on how a later question was written.

Also, based on these posts:

  • This software does not prompt for incorrect number of answers. As in if there were 3 options to select and I did only 2 selections It does not complain. Is it the same with the actual exam?

Yes, but you will see it as incomplete on the review screen. If you try to select more options, it does not let you. It is same in the exam as well.
So the actual exam will show the number of correct answers? Because I noticed the option for the mock exam to not display the number of correct answers, and I can't think of why anyone would want that unless it was to better simulate the exam.

Yes, you can.

Yes.

Many students want to make the test harder by not getting any clue through the number of correct options that a question has.
