// What you will practice
Skills and topics covered
Practice Salesforce development decisions across data modeling, Apex, triggers, Lightning components, security, testing, debugging, and deployment. Scenarios connect platform behavior and governor limits to code that is bulk-safe, secure, and maintainable.
Three developer practices contain 60 original questions each. Detailed rationales, distractor explanations, examples, and Memory Hooks support every answer.
01Platform fundamentals
Work with multitenancy, data models, transactions, order of execution, limits, metadata, and declarative alternatives.
02Apex and database logic
Write bulk-safe queries and DML, structure classes and triggers, handle exceptions, and control transaction behavior.
03User interfaces
Build Lightning Web Components with reactive state, events, data access, validation, and appropriate client-server boundaries.
04Security
Enforce sharing, object and field access, input validation, output safety, and least-privilege execution.
05Testing and deployment
Create isolated tests, useful assertions, test data, asynchronous coverage, debugging evidence, and repeatable releases.
// Who this is for
Build the judgment behind the answer
Designed for developers beginning or consolidating Salesforce Platform development with Apex, Lightning Web Components, data access, tests, and release practices.
// How to prepare
Use each practice deliberately
- Trace every code scenario through transaction scope, record volume, limits, security, and expected side effects.
- Know when declarative automation is sufficient and when custom code provides a justified capability.
- Review tests for isolation, representative data, positive and negative paths, and meaningful assertions.
- Use Memory Hooks to retain platform rules, then explain the example without looking at the answer.

About this Platform Developer practice
What development areas are covered?
Coverage includes platform fundamentals, Apex, SOQL, DML, triggers, Lightning Web Components, security, testing, debugging, and deployment.
Do the questions include governor limits?
Yes. Limits, bulk processing, transaction behavior, asynchronous work, and efficient database access appear throughout the scenarios.
Are there three full practices?
Yes. Each practice contains 60 questions, for 180 questions across all three practices.
Are these Platform Developer questions exam dumps?
No. Every question is original and written for exam-style practice, not copied from real Salesforce exams.
How long do I get access?
New individual practice purchases include one year of access from confirmed payment, with no automatic renewal. Earlier purchases retain their original access.
Do I need an account to start?
You can try the sample question here without an account. Sign in to purchase, save progress and start a full practice.
Why are the practices unlocked in order?
They build on each other. Buy Practice 1 to unlock Practice 2; Practice 3 unlocks after you buy Practice 2. Any free bonus is labelled on its card.
Can I buy Practice 2 without Practice 1?
No. Practice 2 unlocks after Practice 1 is bought.
What is the difference between Practice 1, 2 and 3?
Each contains 60 questions with explanations and Memory Hooks. Practice 1 starts the path, Practice 2 continues it, and Practice 3 completes the path. Any free bonus is labelled on its card. Review the individual practice descriptions for their focus.
How is this different from all-access?
Individual purchases cover one practice for one year. An active all-access subscription includes all three practices and current and future certification practices during verified paid periods, and renews automatically.
